Professor apologizes for his posture regarding shoot

TO THE EDITOR:

I apologize to the UNC and Chapel Hill communities for my involvement in a Playboy photo shoot last April and for my previously defensive posture regarding this incident. As a UNC faculty member, I should not have done either.

I am especially sorry to my female students, colleagues and friends whom I've offended with my reckless and insensitive behavior.
