## The BUAP professor case
An incident has shaken the foundations of the **Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla (BUAP)**. **Miguel Felipe Pérez**, a professor at the institution, was arrested after being caught filming up women's skirts. News of the case, spread through social media, indicates the method involved a hidden camera in his shoe. The seriousness of the events has sparked a wave of outrage and concern.
## Implications and context
Pérez's arrest is not an isolated incident in the realm of gender-based violence and harassment, but his position as a teacher at an educational institution adds a layer of complexity. The university, which should be a safe space for learning and personal growth, is tarnished by acts of this nature. The trust placed in authority figures such as professors is seriously undermined.
## The safety debate
The incident reignites the debate over security measures and response protocols at universities. The perceived impunity in harassment cases and the difficulty of reporting them are recurring issues. It is essential that educational institutions take firm action to prevent, investigate and punish this type of behavior, ensuring an environment free of violence for the entire community.
