Alabama shooting: professor charged as three die
Bishop could face the death penalty if convicted of murder, reports said![]()
A biology professor denied a job promotion has been charged with murder after a shooting at a southern US university left three people dead.
Amy Bishop was apprehended outside a science building at the University of Alabama in Huntsville campus after opening fire at a faculty meeting.
She could face the death penalty if convicted, officials said. Reports said her husband was also being questioned.
US educational sites have seen numerous fatal shooting attacks in recent years.
The most serious occurred at Virginia Tech University in 2007, when a student killed 32 people before turning the gun on himself.
Harvard-educated
Local media reports in Huntsville say the shooting happened after Prof Bishop found out she had been denied academic tenure, which guarantees job security.
University officials said no students were involved
University spokesman Ray Garner said the three killed were the head of department and two other professors. No students were harmed in the incident.
Two of the three injured, also biology department members, are said to be in a critical condition in hospital. The third was reportedly in a "fair" condition.
The Huntsville campus in northern Alabama has about 7,500 students.
Prof Bishop is a neurobiologist who studied at Harvard University. She had joined the biology faculty as an assistant professor in 2003.
Maybe this is a wake up call to Academia. I can remember when I worked in academia how political and stresfull things could get over issues that don't amount to jack shit in the real world often to the point where one loses perspective.
This is a great example. This biology Prof got so stressed out by the mind games they played with her over tenure that she opened fire on their asses. Lost perspective that a Harvard Educated Nuerophysiologist can make 3 to 4 times what she makes at a University, tenure or not, in the real world.
I once told a Full Professor (who earned his PhD as MIT mind you) who was making sarcastic remarks about having to take time away from research to *gasp* get his hands dirty by teaching.....get this....students!
I told him that he shouldn't be so arrogant. He was less productive and of less value to society then our plants millright. He looked down his nose at me, gave a condescending smile and said "What makes you think that?" to whcih I said, "He makes more money then you do and he gets more work of value done in a day then you have in 20 years of research. Good thing I was working as an outside contractor. He couldn't get me fired! LOL
how do you explain away, if everyone was packing victim #2 would have shot Spurt's wife before she killed the second guy.
It's more probable if guns were outlawed nobody would have died and this ugly bitch would have quit her job.
Southerners are nuts.

There's no evidence to support your claim.It's more probable if guns were outlawed nobody would have died and this ugly bitch would have quit her job.

Or built a home made bomb and killed even more.True she could have stabbed them.

And? What's wrong with that?ThreeD is a virgin and he's like 23
No, you seem to be confusing virginity with having sex with a member of the same gender.It's gay
