President Joseph I. Castro STATEMENT REGARDING FACULTY MEMBER’S TWEET
Fresno State University ^ | April 17, 2018 | by Joseph I. Castro

Posted on 04/18/2018 9:47:22 AM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

“On behalf of Fresno State, I extend my deepest condolences to the Bush family on the loss of our former First Lady, Barbara Bush.

We share the deep concerns expressed by others over the personal comments made today by Professor Randa Jarrar, a professor in the English Department at Fresno State. Her statements were made as a private citizen, not as a representative of Fresno State.

Professor Jarrar’s expressed personal views and commentary are obviously contrary to the core values of our University, which include respect and empathy for individuals with divergent points of view, and a sincere commitment to mutual understanding and progress.”

Joseph I. Castro University President, Fresno State

How come he did not add:

And we cannot do anything about it because she has tenure and can say anything she wants.

Those who provide grants to the university can take effective action and get this fat slug canned.

Based on her tweets, it appears that the professor is barely literate.

Fresno State: The State of Hate

How disgusting. If anyone appears at a job interview with credentials from this insane institution, toss their application in the round filing can under your desk.
What a bunch of twisted losers!

I guess the university Prez didn’t get the memo:

“Progress” means sending white people to the gas chambers.

I used to ignore everything from California except for Stanford and Cal Tech.

"“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."

To bad. The fat pig you hired brought your college into the hate speech. Deal with it.

Her statements were made as a private citizen, not as a representative of Fresno State.

Isn't that the same defense Laura Ingram used against the hogg?

And here’s an example of how SOME speech is considered unacceptable on a University campus! Wonder why there aren’t any liberals coming out in defense of the UW professor’s right to express HER personal beliefs!

Meanwhile, just two months ago down the road in Bakersfield, long-time Central Valley conservative talk-radio hosts Inga Barks (a Mark Levin fill-in) and Jaz McKay were fired from KNZR-Bakersfield for "standards" violations.

Barks was apparently recently hired by a Kern County online streaming radio outfit called Kern Cast.

She wears the Palestinian keffiyeh and looks a little like Arafat. I think her whole life has been a punishment, and she has been punished enough. Horrible creature.

I hope this awful woman starts getting death threats and starts fearing for her safety.

Her comments are not that obviously contrary to the school’s core values.

Just checked. If the info’s correct, Fresno State has an endowment worth about $150 mil. I don’t know who the donors are, but I wonder how they feel about the professor’s comments...

That this idiot was given tenure shows the school to be academically bankrupt. Who would pay good money to send their kids to this school where the tenured faculty are idiots and bigots?

In other words, we couldn’t give a f*ck about Barbara Bush - she is the mother and wife of evil Republican presidents, so we’re glad she’s dead. We know that we are paying this ugly-a$$ biytch to teach hate, but we don’t give a rat’s behind and we are not going to fire it.

We know that Barbara Bush was White, so she was evil and racist. If our professor had said something about a Black, she would be out on her ample derriere in the blink of a eye. The entire college would be closed for compulsory racist retraining, and we would be giving free tuition to all Blacks.
