Saint Lucians have set high standards...two nobel laureates to boot.
Derek Walcott, the Nobel prizewinner, is being sued in the United States for more than half a million dollars for sexual harassment.Mr Walcott, who comes from St Lucia, has been accused by a student to whom he taught creative writing at Boston University of threatening to fail her unless she went to bed with him.
Nicole Niemi, a former television reporter who is in her mid-thirties, says she left the university's playwriting course after the incident and returned to her home in St Paul, Minnesota. She is seeking compensation for emotional distress, to cover her university expenses and her legal fees, as well as punitive damages.
Mr Walcott has been asked to return to Boston from his native St Lucia to provide sworn testimony before court officials on 6 June.
Is this geezer one the 'high standard' laureates you mention ? You didn't give names leaving readers unclear of whom you speak. Sheeesh😆
