Overview

• Florida Atlantic University placed a tenured faculty member on administrative leave pending an investigation into repeated social‑media comments.
• The University of Miami said an employee is no longer employed and stated that expressions endorsing violence violate its policies and values.
• Neither institution named the individuals, though The Miami Hurricane identified UM’s employee as Dr. Michelle Bravo and activist accounts named FAU’s faculty member as Karen Leader.
• Reporting says Bravo shared an Instagram post referencing Kirk’s killing with the line about “chickens have come home to roost,” which was widely amplified online by StopAntisemitism.
• FAU President Adam Hasner emphasized expectations for civil discourse as conservative activists continue flagging posts after the Sept. 10 killing and the Sept. 12 arrest of Tyler Robinson.
