By DAN WEBER Association of Mature American Citizens A California State University professor didn’t get fired after tweeting the night former first lady Barbara Bush died that Mrs. Bush was an “amazing racist” and Fresno State President Joseph Castro confirmed that Randa Jarrar wouldn’t be fired. Jarrar’s tweet, which was laced with profanity, is protected, Castro said in a statement after the incident. In New Jersey, a professor at Brookdale Community College, Howard Finkelstein, berated a student, also using profanity, because of the student’s conservative beliefs.
