>The day after Donald Trump defeated Kamala Harris in the election, the 22-year tenured professor emailed the three students taking the class "Abortion and Religion" that he was canceling the Wednesday class to “mourn and process this racist fascist country.”

>Later that week, Bowley received an email that stated he was being placed on administrative leave for using his “Millsaps email account to share personal opinions with [his] students.”

>The firing comes days before Trump is scheduled to be inaugurated for his second term.

>"This is censorship," Bowley told the Clarion Ledger. "By any definition, this is censorship. That is what is going on here. The administration's censorship of the faculty is a serious matter and is a step toward and part of fascism."

>Bowley also taught classes named "Sex, Death and Religion" and "Holocaust and Fascism: 1920s and 1930s Germany" as well as a first-year writing class.
