Two dozen students gathered near the College of Pharmacy buildings and marched to the tower Tuesday afternoon to protest against pharmacy professor Richard Morrisett, two weeks after a report found UT allowed him to remain on staff after pleading guilty to domestic abuse charges.

The protest was hosted by the Revolutionary Student Front and was aimed as a “Rally to Run Off Morrisett,” according to the Facebook event and flyers posted on campus.

The protest comes one week after the College of Pharmacy was found tagged with red spray-painted messages such as “UT harbors abusers” and “Watch your back Richard,” and two weeks after the Austin-American Statesman released a report about his domestic abuse charges.

Jasmine Bell, a protester, said at the very least Morrisett should be fired because it seems as though UT is supporting abusers.

“It seems like everywhere I go abusers are being supported and there are no consequences for them,” said Bell, a psychology senior. “UT has shown that it doesn’t care about people. It doesn’t care about the people who experience abuse. UT doesn’t care about me. UT doesn’t care about my friends who have experienced abuse. I don’t feel safe here anymore and neither do most of my friends.”

Chants during the protest included “If violence brings UT profit they won’t even care to stop it” and “Morrisett it’s time to leave, no abusers at UT.”

Austin Smith, a protester, said it is hard to build trust with the University if they do not discipline actions such as Morrisett’s.

“I heard about (the protest) and I try to stay involved in a lot of advocacy work, so supporting survivors of this type of violence or trying to prevent it through education (is important),” said Smith, a government and economics junior. “It’s been a really frustrating few weeks hearing that this man is being protected by the University, while simultaneously the University is trying to promote resources (to help survivors)."

The UT Police Department remained near the protest and arrested one woman who was not affiliated with the University that had violated a previous trespassing warning, UTPD spokeswoman Cindy Posey said.

In May 2016, Morrisett was charged with strangling his girlfriend until "she saw stars." Morrisett was later accused of another violent incident in July 2016 that sent his girlfriend to the hospital and violated a restraining order, according to multiple arrest affidavits.

Morrisett pleaded guilty to the first incident in February 2017, which resulted in an agreement with the Travis County District Attorney's Office that resolved his cases and sentenced Morrisett to four years of probation, 100 hours of community service and a required class on family violence.

“We respect the rights of our students to voice their opinions,” UT spokesman J.B. Bird said in an email. “The University took Dr. Morrisett’s actions very seriously, investigating them in 2016. The University is monitoring him during probation to make sure he meets all the conditions and is not accused of other criminal behavior.”

Protester Joshua Rosenthal said the University has not done enough following the incidents of Morrisett’s domestic abuse charges.

“(Abuse) should not happen on any campus, especially UT,” said Rosenthal, a biology and Russian senior. “I will not allow this to happen at a campus that I attend. I feel that it really hasn’t been enough and it has mostly been symbolic until now.”
