Former University Professor Accused of Selling Grades for Charity Donations

A former University of Central Florida professor is accused of selling grades to students for charity donations. But Dr. Kenneth Vehec said it was a misunderstanding.

“That is so abhorrent to me. I can't believe someone would actually think that. I've been teaching out there for 14 years,” said Vehec.

The university said the adjunct psychology professor allowed students to skip writing papers and taking exams in exchange for the donations.

Vehec is not allowed in a UCF classroom. He said he would hand out extra credit to students if they got involved in events around campus, but denied students could buy their grades by donating money to a charity.
