Bad teachers

I've been seeing a lot of news lately about teachers in Japan abusing their students. Today we have a story about a teacher of calligraphy (writing Chinese characters with a brush and ink, usually on a large scroll) who molested a female student.

The teacher of Daito Bunkadai Daiichi High School in Tokyo's Itabashi-ku is suspected of touching the breasts and legs of a female student in the calligraphy club room on Nov. 3.

This is pretty much all the information we get about the incident...except for the title of the article:

Calligraphy teacher caught brushing student's breasts

So...he was using his brush? Or was the person writing the article just being particularly inventive? The world may never know.
