The dean of Stanford University’s Graduate School of Business Garth Saloner is stepping down in light of a lawsuit and related sex scandal. Stanford announced Saloner’s resignation on Monday.

Soon after Stanford broke the news, Poets & Quants, a website that reports on business schools, published a story by Ethan Baron detailing how Saloner, a South African-born economist, was the subject of a wrongful termination suit by a former Stanford professor whose wife was allegedly having an affair with Saloner. Baron’s story describes the unamicable divorce of two Stanford professors and how the firing of one professor led to a lawsuit against Saloner and the university.
