It looks like The Cut was the one to start this trend back in February, when Page Six first reported on rumors that Galliano might take a teaching appointment. I don’t know why anyone goes on the Internet when you could just dunk your head in the toilet and flush repeatedly.
It’s worth noting that a Professor Galliano already exists: Grace Galliano teaches gender psychology at Arizona State University. Though she got her MA at The New School and so the two Gallianos have an institutional connection, she’s never been tried for hate speech in French court, so I doubt they’d have very much in common.
