Guess she made the cut…

According to a report from The New York Post, Shellyne Rodriguez, the former Manhattan college professor who held a machete to a New York Post reporter’s neck, has landed on her feet with a brand new gig.

Shellyne Rodriguez is listed as an adjunct instructor at the Cooper Union in the East Village; she’s teaching a sculpting class. Cooper Union confirmed her employment status.

From The New York Post:

Rodriguez was fired from her roles as a professor at both Hunter College and the School of Visual Arts after she was caught threatening and then chasing a veteran Post reporter with a machete on May 23.

She was charged with harassment and menacing following the violent encounter which began when the scribe and a photographer knocked on the door of her Bronx apartment to get comment on a viral video featuring the professor.

Rodriguez was caught on the video cursing and yelling at a group of Hunter students who set up a table with anti-abortion pamphlets and materials on May 2.
