Krug was outed as a white Jewish Woman from Missouri who posed as a black and later black-hispanic academic much like Rachel Dolezal. She resigned from her position as professor of African American studies at George Washington University

Looking at her, I'm not sure how they were fooled. However, there was a film a while back where the reverse was kinda done -- you had a black professor who, in his youth, had been lightskinned enough that his parents had managed to pass him off as Jewish and he lived that lie so long that he had forgotten his actual race (and, ironically enough, he was forced to resign when his comment is taken as being racist against blacks because he used a word for ghost (referring to them constantly being absent) which also has some history as a slur). Thinking back, it was probably an interesting drama. I'll have to see if I can remember the name because I might want to watch it. I believe it came out in 2006 or 2007 because I used to kill time after work to avoid the rush hour commute back then.

At any rate, colleges are big on hiring nutbags who wouldn't make it anywhere else in society. They're also big on protecting dirtbags, like that one professor who mocked a young girl who got raped and suggested that her pain didn't matter because she was white.
