'Nobel laureate Philip Dybvig is facing an inquiry by Washington University in St. Louis about allegations of sexual harassment by a former student. 

Dybvig, who has been a banking and finance professor at the university since 1990 and won this year’s economics prize for his research on bank panics, was questioned by the university’s Title IX office in recent weeks, his lawyer, Andrew Miltenberg, told Bloomberg News."
