An ethnic studies professor who was accused of claiming to be Native American has agreed to part ways next year with the University of California Riverside following a complaint filed by colleagues, documents show.
The separation agreement between the university and Andrea Smith, a tenured professor, cites “a complaint signed by 13 faculty members alleging that Professor Smith has made fraudulent claims to Native American identity in violation of the Faculty Code of Conduct provisions concerning academic integrity.
Warren declined to share the complaint filed by faculty noting, “It’s up to the signers to identify themselves.” Though the agreement was finalized in January, Smith’s employment with the university will run through August 2024, at which time her resignation will take effect. Until then, Smith remains eligible to teach “all university courses for which she is qualified.” She is currently listed on UCR’s website as “on sabbatical.
