Fresno State University is distancing the school from a professor who celebrated the death of former first lady Barbara Bush as it reviews the matter, officials said Wednesday.
“Randa Jarrar, a Fresno State English professor, made deeply disrespectful statements on her personal Twitter account,” Lynnette Zelezny, vice president of academic affairs at Fresno State, told reporters at a press briefing. “Understandably, many people are very concerned and upset about the nature of Professor Jarrar’s personal comments. Please know the university is taking this matter very seriously and the incident is under review.”
Zelezny declined to say whether the school intends to fire Jarrar.
“The university is a public institution and must follow certain specific procedures in addressing personnel matters,” she said.
According to Zelezny, Jarrar had taken a personal leave of absence and was not teaching classes this semester. Jarrar did not immediately return a request for comment.
On Tuesday night after news of Bush’s passing broke, Jarrar took to Twitter, apparently angry about the outpouring of tributes to the former first lady.
“Barbara Bush was a generous and smart and amazing racist who, along with her husband, raised a war criminal,” Jarrar tweeted. “F*** outta here with your nice words,” she wrote.
“I’m happy the witch is dead,” Jarrar continued. “Can’t wait for the rest of her family to fall to their demise the way 1.5 million iraqis have.”
She added: “All the hate I’m getting ALMOST made me forget how happy I am that George W. Bush is probably really sad right now.”

I hope she gets fired. Another of her tweets said she makes 100k and is tenured so can't be fired.

Typical ignorant go low liberal. Colleges are full of them.

 

Seems to be a pattern at this particular "University":

 

Being tenured may not save the teacher from being reprimanded. A Fresno State history professor was disciplined last year after he stated on Twitter that President Donald Trump "must hang".

Agreed, but this will definitely not happen when the following die:

 

Bill Clinton

Hillary Clinton

George W Bush

D!ck Cheney

Barack Obama

Donald Trump

 

And there are probably many more...

 

The other side will be having a field day...

From a piece she wrote in 2014:

Jarrar said she felt that white women who take part in the art of bellydance are engaging in cultural appropriation and "brown face.

Bush-bashing professor has Fresno State scrambling to keep its donors

 

Jarrar, a tenured professor, boasted on social media that because she has tenure, she won’t be fired from her job. She’s currently on leave this semester and was reportedly traveling overseas.

sure there are differences. Roger is a man, Randa.....isn't? Randa looks like the clown from spawn, Roger looks like a sad Charles Grodin. They both for whatever reason made some negative comments about Babs after she died....most people think its pretty tasteless, and in some way are sending a big STFU towards them...it should be to both. That you think the teacher aspect is something of import here, and using it to absolve the talking head in any way is silly.

That you don't think the fact she is a teacher saying this carries more weight than a talking head is freaking absurd on so many levels and shows what is wrong with this country. One is going to be tuned out after the next new cycle. One is going to teach kids with her brand of stupid. There is a VERY CLEAR difference here and its not the sex of the person or their resemblance to the spawn clown.

 

If my child went to this school I would yank them asap. I don't even like the bush family. Did not vote for any of them. This is not what a college professor should be saying.

California university won't punish professor who jeered Bush

 

https://www.yahoo.com/news/california-university-wont-punish-professor-jeered-bush-020023763.html

 

 

 

FRESNO, Calif. (AP) — A California State University, Fresno professor who called Barbara Bush "an amazing racist" and cheered her death will not be punished, the president of the university announced Tuesday.
Randa Jarrar was acting as a private citizen using her personal Twitter account so her remarks didn't violate any California State University or campus policies, Fresno State President Joseph Castro wrote in announcing the results of a review.
"Her comments, although disgraceful, are protected free speech under the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution," Castro wrote. "Our duty as Americans and educators is to promote a free exchange of diverse views, even if we disagree with them."
Jarrar has been on leave this semester and couldn't immediately be reached for comment. An email to her university address was not immediately returned.
The English professor provoked a storm of criticism last week with her tweets following the death of the former first lady.
"Barbara Bush was a generous and smart and amazing racist who, along with her husband, raised a war criminal," Jarrar wrote.
Jarrar also commented that she was "happy the witch is dead."
A Change.org petition to have her fired had garnered 50,000 online signatures as of Tuesday evening.
In response to critics, Jarrar said she was a tenured professor who could not be fired but Castro said the issue wasn't related to her job or tenure.
However, he also condemned her remarks.
"Professor Jarrar's conduct was insensitive, inappropriate and an embarrassment to the university," Castro wrote, adding: "On campus and whenever we are representing the university, I expect all of us to engage in respectful dialogue."
Jarrar grew up in Kuwait and Egypt and moved to the United States after the Gulf War, according to her university faculty page.
She describes herself in her Twitter messages as an Arab-American and a Muslim-American woman.

Not a fan of the Bush clan but all this does is cause the losers (like this pile of ) of this country even more outspoken.

Whatever. I don't like that she's an educator, but she's entitled to her opinion.

 

I'm sure there were many professors who said they were happy when Kennedy was killed.

 

These dummies need to.learn how social media works

To an extent, yes.

She has the right to her opinion and free speech.

 

Yet she does represent the university- when an employee becomes an embarrassment to an organization, they should be free to terminate employment

Don't disagree. Free speech can have consequences

Yet they censor speech on campus. This is all very confusing.

You think so, but that is because you have a 4 yr old. Him, you yank. A college student, you talk to about the situation and how he would like to proceed, like an adult. :cheers:

Yep. She has the right to be a kvnt, and the university has the right to take disciplinary action. Interesting that they chose not to, as the city of Fresno is quite red I believe. I don't expect a lot of lefties from SF or LA go there, so they wouldn't be their target market.
