In case the question comes up, John B. Hall of PSU and Howard "John" Hall formerly of UF are not the same guys.

Portland State Investigates a Professor Who Accused a Student of FBI Ties:

Mr. Hall then went on to say that Mr. Bucharest had served as a sniper in the Israeli army, tried to sell weapons to members of the class, and worked with the FBI, among other claims, the students said. Mr. Hall also showed students a letter he had written to the FBI.

"His voice was in a totally normal tone," said Brett Condron, a student in the class. "It was just like he was lecturing on."

Students say Mr. Bucharest, who is chief of staff for the university's student government, stayed silent while the professor talked. When Mr. Hall finished speaking, Mr. Bucharest stood and told the class that it was true that he had been a sniper in the Israeli army, but that Mr. Hall was wrong about other things. He then left.

"I expected that Zak was in on the joke and would scream, 'Psych,'" said another student, Jeremy Veysseire.
