The former Manhattan college professor who threatened to “chop” up a Post reporter while holding a machete to his neck appears to have secured a new teaching gig.
Shellyne Rodriguez is listed as an adjunct instructor at the Cooper Union in the East Village and appears on the fall semester schedule as teaching a sculpture class.
A spokesperson for Cooper Union did not immediately respond when asked to confirm Rodriguez’s employment status.
Rodriguez was fired from her roles as a professor at both Hunter College and the School of Visual Arts after she was caught threatening and then chasing a veteran Post reporter with a machete on May 23.
She was charged with harassment and menacing following the violent encounter which began when the scribe and a photographer knocked on the door of her Bronx apartment to get comment on a viral video featuring the professor.
Rodriguez was caught on the video cursing and yelling at a group of Hunter students who set up a table with anti-abortion pamphlets and materials on May 2.
“You’re not educating s–t. This is f—ing propaganda,” she snapped, tossing the papers onto the floor. “What are you going to do, like anti-trans next?”
After the video made the rounds online, the Post journalists knocked on the door of her Bronx apartment on May 23 to ask for her side of the story.
Instead, Rodriguez came out armed with a machete which she quickly held to the reporter’s throat, alarming video shows.
“Get the f–k away from my door or I’m gonna chop you up with this machete!” Rodriguez shouted before retreating back inside.
The pair left the building but Rodriguez soon came after them and chased them down the street while wielding the machete, according to footage of the encounter.
“If I see you on this block one more f—ing time, you’re gonna…,” she began yelling. “Get the f–k off the block! Get the f–k out of here, yo!”
Hours after the video of her shocking actions was published, Hunter College fired her and she was later charged with harassment, menacing and weapons possession — all of which she pleaded not guilty to.
The College Fix first reported the news of Rodriguez’s new professor job.
