Oregon U staffer Leonard Serrato on leave after rant against Trump voters
A University of Oregon Greek Life administrator was placed on leave after he launched into an expletive-filled rant about Donald Trump’s 2024 election win, callously telling supporters of the president-elect to “jump off a f–king bridge.”
Leonard Serrato, the fraternity and sorority life assistant director, faced immediate backlash following the offensive tirade he posted on his personal Instagram page.
“I say this in the most disrespectful way possible: I don’t care if you are my family, I don’t care if you are my friend, I don’t care if we’ve been friends our entire lives, you can literally go f–k yourself if you voted for Donald Trump,” Serrato said, according to The Oregonian.

Serrato, who proudly called himself a “petty person,” then took aim at voters who were concerned about inflation.
“If you are so sad about your groceries being expensive, get a better f–cking paying job,” he said.
“Do better in life, get a f–king education, do something because you are f–king stupid and I hope you go jump off a f–king bridge.”
The school has placed him on administrative leave and opened an investigation into the matter.
“As a public university we take our duty seriously to provide an environment that welcomes diversity of thought and respect in alignment with our education mission,” the spokesperson told The Post in an email.

“While we investigate, we are providing support for concerned students and employees, including resources for mental and emotional health.”
The school also counseled Serrato in the aftermath and confirmed the post was taken down, the spokesperson said.
A message to Serrato was not immediately returned Thursday night.
Serrato was jailed for 90 days more than a decade ago after the then-senior at Fresno State brought alcohol for a party with new members at his frat house, according to a report.

An 18-year-old pledge died that night, which landed Serrato in legal trouble, he recalled in a 2021 press release about him joining a job at the University of Indiana.
Since that tragic night, he said his focus was on ending hazing and improving Greek Life.
“My focus is accountability: holding our Greek communities accountable for their actions, but also holding myself accountable that they’re being educated properly,” he previously said.
