Ethics & Professionalism

SHAME ON YOU

Everyone who has been "taught" by Bryce Yokomizo knows he likes to tell a particular story, and attempts to use additonal 20 minutes of classtime to tell it twice. He even comments that he tells this story to each of his classes. Standing at barely 5 feet with noticeable shoe lifts, Yokomizo delivers his class lectures like he is in the pulpit, preaching about his glory days and what he got away with. His "teaching" style includes writhing, throwing his arms in the air and speaking at the top of his lungs.

The story is about when he first started working for LA government and he would sneak out in the middle of the work day with two friends to Klassy Kitty, a then strip join in The San Fernando Valley, for cheap pitchers of beer. He comments that 25 years later, certain other government workers tell him they know about his indiscretions.

Yokomizo is highly involved in his local churches: preaching about Jesus and family values. Here are links naming him and his sermons:

Michael Duane Harris v. Bryce Yokomizo

Yokomizo assigned a 62.5% grade to a 3.9 GPA student who is a civil rights activist, whistleblower who has stood up to the LAPD and others, while Yokomizo encouraged another student to make fun of civil rights associations.

Yokomizo changed the term paper prompt for the one student in particular, as evidenced by other student term papers on which he did not use the same grading system. He then removed evidence from Blackboard.
