The university leases the classroom space from a community center in East St. Louis, about 30 minutes south of its main campus. Students were allegedly asked to take off their clothes then stand in a closet naked as a way to discipline them. University police began investigating the accusations Thursday after a young boy told his parents about the supposed punishment, Schmoll said.
Both the teacher and the 41-year-old teacher's aide have been placed on administrative leave while authorities investigate.
