Dr. Ian Lamond of Leeds Metropolitan University was just trying to teach his events management class how to make a good sales pitch.

But I think Dr. Lamond should take this lesson: Always be closing, and always wear clothing when closing.

The smutty professor: University academic strips down to his UNDERWEAR in front of his first-year students during lecture

An academic is being investigated by his university after stripping off in front of shocked students in the middle of a lecture.

Dr Ian Lamond, an events management lecturer at Leeds Metropolitan University, performed the striptease in an apparent bid to teach his class how to give an exciting sales pitch.
The university now says it is looking into the stunt after bemused members of Dr Lamond’s class tweeted pictures of his actions.

It is believed Dr Lamond started taking his clothes off during a lecture he was giving to first year students earlier this year.

Photos show him removing his trousers and purple shirt and standing in front of his class in just a grey pair of underpants. He was then pictured sitting down at a desk and shaving.
