A Stony Brook University dean reprimanded New York Democrat Nancy Goroff for using taxpayer-funded school resources to boost her congressional campaign, internal emails obtained by the Washington Free Beacon show.

Goroff, a longtime chemistry professor at the university, used “internal Stony Brook distribution lists” in July 2019 to announce her candidacy against Republican congressman Lee Zeldin. The Democrat’s email—which reached more than 150 students, according to the university’s office of the president—touted her accomplishments as a professor before asking recipients to help “launch this campaign” by donating through a fundraising link. more
