University statements – Sept. 13-14, 2025

September 14, 2025

Following our earlier statement regarding a video circulating online that appears to capture a Fresno State lecturer making a deeply offensive comment about the death of Charlie Kirk, we want to share an update.

The lecturer has been placed on leave effective immediately while we investigate this incident. 

Fresno State condemns, in the strongest possible terms, any language that celebrates or condones violence. Such remarks are antithetical to our values at Fresno State.
