On December 29, 2020 the Jewsh News of Northern California reported that UC Merced had launched an inquiry into the conduct of Ghassemi. NMSU Chancellor Juan Sánchez Muñoz posted a letter to the university’s website stating that the opinions presented in Ghassemi’s Twitter account did not represent UC Merced or the University of California and that “They were abhorrent and repugnant to us and to many of our colleagues and neighbors; they were harmful to our university, our students, and our years of work to build an inclusive and welcoming community.”

On December 31, the Fresno Bee reported that Ghassemi’s anti-Semitic tweets had been deleted and that Ghassemi had retained legal counsel. A petition was filed on Change.org demanding Ghassemi’s firing and a letter was sent to university leaders calling for action against Ghassemi.
