Charleston Southern University associate professor Paul Roof says the school fired him Friday after his bearded visage appeared on cans of Holy City Brewing’s Chucktown Follicle Brown.

“They said that this was not an image for the Christian environment and that it may seem to students that I am endorsing the use of alcohol,” says Roof, who taught at the university for seven years and also founded the social club Holy City Beard & Moustache Society.

HCBMS hosts beard and mustache competitions as charity fundraisers for ovarian cancer patients and their families.
