California State University's Fresno campus is investigating after one of their English professors tweeted she was "happy" former first lady Barbara Bush was dead just an hour after her passing was announced.
The author and professor, Randa Jarrar, tweeted a slew of comments about Bush, calling her "a generous and smart and amazing racist who, along with her husband, raised a war criminal."

Bush, 92, died Tuesday night just days after her family announced her health was failing.
Amid the backlash to her tweets, Jarrar, who also said she "can't wait for the rest of [the Bush] family to fall to their demise," said that she couldn't get fired from her job at Fresno State because of tenure.

I work as a tenured professor. I make 100K a year doing that. I will never be fired. I will always have people wanting to hear what I have to say," she wrote on Twitter.
The university's provost, Lynnette Zelezny, referred to the professor's comments as "disrepectful" during a news conference Wednesday, and said the school is taking the situation "very seriously."
"We understand the concern from the community and we are taking this very seriously," Zelezny said, according to The Fresno Bee. "To answer the technical question: Can she not be fired? The answer is no."
Fresno State has reportedly not been in contact with Jarrar, who has been on a leave of absense during the spring semester.

Of course she can. She’s an idiot for thinking or saying otherwise.
...but they won’t...
Fire her fat a$$!
“To answer the technical question: Can she not be fired? The answer is no.”
Or if you’re not in academia:
“To answer the technical question: Can she be fired? The answer is yes.”
Likely they will promote her, albeit offsite.. but some folks here were reminding creepers that she is responsible for Jeb. FR has fallen.
A tenured appointment is an indefinite academic appointment that can be terminated only for cause or under extraordinary circumstances, such as financial exigency or program discontinuation............
I thought the same. The provost apparently cant put out a clear statement.
That level of obesity means she is unlikely to make it to her 90's.
They’re waiting to see if any major donors express an unwillingness to make further contributions too the school unless this wretched cow is fired. If there’s a donor impact, she gone.
FIRE that ARAB SLUT.
Wow, you really can put Lipstick on a Pig.
I always thought it was just a saying.
She’s a terrorist in waiting...................
Send her BACK to her own land, to fix the problems there that she RAN AWAY from.
