GUILFORD COUNTY, N.C. (WGHP) — A part-time instructor at Guilford Technical Community College has been fired for comments she made regarding the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

GTCC released the following statement:

“Guilford Technical Community College does not condone violence or hate speech of any kind. As a result of our investigation, [a part-time instructor], is no longer employed by the college. We deeply regret that students, employees, and the community were impacted by her comments.

[Her] behavior is not consistent with the college’s values and mission to serve Guilford County. Her statement regarding the assassination of Charlie Kirk does not support the open and respectful learning and working environment that GTCC provides every day.

We want to reiterate that supporting violence is reprehensible and will not be tolerated at the college.

College administration is engaging with our Titan community to provide the necessary services to support our students, faculty, and staff. We are committed to fostering a learning environment built on respect, integrity, and responsibility.”

GTCC President Anthony Clarke, Ph.D.
 

Kirk, a political activist, was shot and killed by an assassin during a speaking engangement at a college in Utah on Wednesday afternoon.

The suspect accused of killing Kirk, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson has been taken into custody.
