MUNCIE, Ind. (WOWO) — Ball State University has fired Suzanne Swierc, its Director of Health Promotion and Advocacy, after she made a controversial post on social media expressing disdain for conservative activist Charlie Kirk following his assassination.
The university said her remarks caused a “disruption” on campus. Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita condemned the post and urged Hoosiers to report similar rhetoric from educators.
Ball State also confirmed a second employee’s post is under review.
The message: hateful speech has consequences-especially in our schools.
