Carnegie Mellon professor Uju Anya wrote, "I heard the chief monarch of a thieving raping genocidal empire is finally dying. May her pain be excruciating" on Thursday following the news that Queen Elizabeth II was on her deathbed.
"We do not condone the offensive and objectionable messages posted by Uju Anya today on her personal social media account," a Carnegie Mellon spokesperson told Breitbart News in a statement.
"Free expression is core to the mission of higher education, however, the views she shared absolutely do not represent the values of the institution, nor the standards of discourse we seek to foster," the spokesperson added.
The tweet was later removed by Twitter, with the social media platform saying, "This Tweet violated the Twitter Rules."
Anya didn’t stop there, proceeding to issue similar follow-up tweets, as well as argue with people who took offense at her comments.
