The online news source Inside Higher Ed is moving a story this morning that says Miguel H. Diaz, U.S. ambassador to the Vatican from 2009-2012, was investigated for sexual harassment by the University of Dayton, the Marianist university where he has been teaching since leaving government service.

Insider Higher Ed reports that a “preponderance of evidence” led investigators to conclude there was “reasonable cause to believe that some of [Díaz’s] conduct constituted sexual harassment that created an intimidating, hostile, or offensive environment,” according to a letter sent to the alleged victims by Dayton’s general counsel.
The university imposed a number of restrictions on Diaz as conditions for his continued employment, according to the report.
Insider Higher Ed quotes from a confidential letter written by Dayton’s provost to the couple who filed a complaint against Diaz.
