(CNN) A professor of African and Latin American studies who portrayed herself as Black has now revealed she has been lying. Krug told the class she was from the Bronx, an identity she was proud of, Goraya told CNN. Krug would also say the N-word when it was in texts the class was reading, Goraya told CNN. Crystal Nosal, a spokesperson for George Washington University, wrote to CNN that the university is aware of Krug's post and looking into the situation, but "cannot comment further on personnel matters." Attention & access - just like her pretending to a Black Woman was."
