"[This] essay introduces readers to Mabel Frazer and a sexual misconduct case directed against her male colleague in the University of Utah's Art Department. Based on information that her own students had confided in her, Mabel Frazer approached university president George Thomas in 1937 with claims that A. B. Wright had engaged in improper sexual conduct toward women students. Emily Larsen and Heather Belnap carefully walk readers through the context and contours of the claims, including the gender power dynamics that then privileged--and continue to privilege--Wright's version of events over Frazer's. The authors also document the negative repercussions that Frazer faced after filing the complaint with the university president." [Publisher]
