Fired Mizzou prof Melissa Click hired at Gonzaga

By Around the Web

(KREM) A former University of Missouri professor who was fired after video surfaced of her yelling at a student during a protest has a new job at Gonzaga University.

Gonzaga hired former MU professor Melissa Click for a one-year, non-tenure track position as a lecturer in Gonzaga’s undergraduate Communication Studies Department.

The University of Missouri fired Click in February after a video surfaced of her calling for “some muscle” to remove a student videographer from protests on the school’s campus last fall. The student, a freelancer on assignment for ESPN, argued his First Amendment rights allowed him to be in a public area.
