Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana, announced it has fired Suzanne Swierc, the school’s director of health promotion and advocacy, after she caused “significant disruption” to the university that called into question “her ability to perform her work in her leadership position” after she smeared Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk following his assassination.
“On September 10, 2025, Ms. Suzanne Swierc posted a statement on social media related to the assassination of Mr. Charlie Kirk,” Ball State University began in a statement posted to X on Wednesday.
