'Tiger Mom' Amy Chua denies allegations of inappropriate parties, slams disrespect and lack of due process

Amy Chua denied recent allegations laid out against her by an independent student newspaper.

The allegations appeared in a story in the Yale Daily News, which reported that Chua had lost a position leading one of the school’s first-year small groups in response to her violating a 2019 agreement with the school to stop having "out-of-class-hours interactions with students." On Facebook, Chua described the article as a "hit job." In her post, she wrote, "I did not violate any agreement, nor have I been hosting wild parties during COVID. On the contrary, what I HAVE done is comforted a small handful of students who reached out to me in moments of crisis, including after the recent spike in discrimination and violence against Asian Americans, when they felt the school was not supporting them and they had no one else to turn to. As the only Asian American woman on the academic faculty, I can’t imagine any other faculty member would be treated with this kind of disrespect and utter lack of due process."
