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.

I wonder how the large Fresno Armenian community think of her.
Check her brand and see which ranch to return her to.
Get your kids signed up and accepted at FSU
Thats CalState Fresno. Not FSU, which is an awesome party school in the Florida panhandle. Lol.
GOOD. Make it so.
Chubbs
We have not been at all careful whom we allow into the role of ‘teacher’ , educating and indoctrinating our youth . M pigs should not be among them . We have become a nation blindly casting our pearls to the swine . There’s a terrible cost .
so when is deer season in the Sierras ?
Major donors may be older and richer, but they may still only be Communists with big money...They may not care at all! /s;)
I did not intend to smear the Seminoles. I assumed Fresno State —being a university—would be referred to FSU. What is it ? CSUF ?
Whether or not she can be fired is one thing. But she doesn’t have to be paid $100,000 a year, although they probably can’t go below the salary equivalent of minimum wage. Nor do they have to give her a fancy office - a dark closet-sized room in a sub-basement should work just fine. And her school should have plenty of remedial English classes that need servicing, with lots of papers to grade during the team - I’m sure she’d notice if she were to realize those were to be her assignments for the rest of her sorry career.
The over fed, tub of lard deserves to be fired...
let her try to find another job paying $100K annually.
She is very creep looking and full of bull...
Move on and let her hit the unemployment line...
“Tenure....I Don’t Think It Means What You Think It Means”........
I means.......”Ten ur outta here”
Yawn. I won’t be expending any time and energy defending the Bush’s again since they’ve certainly shown what contempt they have for us.
Fresno State is in a pretty conservative community. Lots and lots of Bakersfield people send their kids there too, another conservative community. I think FSU is gonna catch hell about this loud mouthed immigrant.
$100k in Fresno is pretty good money.
Crap. Its CSUF not FSU. Lol
Discontinue her position, subject, etc.
Bye, Bye.
