Paul Ewell, the former dean of the University of Virginia Wesleyan World Campus, has resigned both the university dean and his faculty position after he wrote a Facebook post on his since deleted account, which referred to President-elect Joe Biden's voters as "anti-American." And "anti-Christian".
When asked for a further comment and whether he was sticking to his words in the post, Ewell told CNN in an email that he "deeply apologized" and had "nothing left to add." Ewell did not admit to CNN's query whether his resignation from the university came in response to the post.
According to the report, Ewell's alleged post was directed at any friends on Facebook who may have voted for Biden or are Democrats to unfriend Biden on the social media platform, and the alleged "post" said: "If I am ignorant, anti-American and anti-Christian enough to vote for Biden, I really am." I do not want to be your social friend on social media..I will not deal with you in real life or here .. I messed up the elections. You corrupted our youth. You corrupted our country. I have standards and you don’t meet them. Please remove yourself. ”
The University of Virginia Wesleyan confirmed in a statement posted on its website on Monday that the university had accepted the resignation of Ewell, who had worked there since 2008, and Stephanie Smaglow, the university's chief marketing officer, told CNN that the university "has no additional information at this time." .
