![Among the complaints upheld by the investigator are that Orr allegedly made belittling
remarks to the student, and had demanded an “excessive” and “unreasonable” amount of
written work in an effort to refine a thesis proposal. The report also criticised “at worst
inappropriate and at best thoughtless comments made [by Orr] in the equally
inappropriate context of [Orr’s] own home”. This was in reference to a dinner that the
student, who comes from a Christian, conservative background, had attended at Orr’s
house.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:lp27scbhcz4sl5eidxkq2l7f/bafkreib46c4cywfrvxjqqr7tx264l67lenpv23ofkmrhapx3lt24ix7unm)
