A friend announced on Facebook that while she hated what the administrator over the Office of Student Care and Conduct had posted, she felt that she didn't deserve to be fired over it. While I tend to avoid politics online, I argued with her that in this case, it was literally someone with responsibility for student safety and well-being on a college campus. And this individual announcing publicly that a victim of political violence on another college campus basically deserved it was grounds for immediate dismissal.
