University of Oklahoma Paid Drag Queen $11,500 for Performance in Campus Show
“Drag shows and drag queens are becoming an increasingly common phenomenon throughout American higher education.”
Doesn’t this amount seem a bit excessive? How do you suppose Oklahoma taxpayers feel about this?
Campus Reform reports:
University of Oklahoma gave more than $10,000 to drag queen
The University of Oklahoma has paid a large sum to a drag queen for his participation in a school-sponsored drag show.
The school paid the drag queen, who calls himself “Plasma,” $11,500 for his central role in the “Crimson and Queens” drag show at the school, which took place on Oct. 17, according to OCPA.
Campus Reform previously reported on the “Crimson and Queens” event, which “features internationally recognized drag queens, all of whom have gained considerable fame from their appearances on the Emmy Award-winning television show RuPaul’s Drag Race.”
The drag show was part of the scheduling for Homecoming week at the university.
The University of Oklahoma has paid similar sums to other drag queens in the past.
During a previous iteration of the annual “Crimson and Queens” event, the school handed out $18,000 to drag queen Yvie Oddly, and on another occasion, the university paid $11,000 to another drag queen, “Kornread Jete,” to lead a “Drag Bingo,” OCPA noted.
Drag shows and drag queens are becoming an increasingly common phenomenon throughout American higher education.
The the University of California, San Francisco, hosted an event with D’Arcy Drollinger, a drag queen who was proclaimed San Franscisco’s first-ever “drag laureate,” a title that comes with a stipend of $55,000.

The Oklahoma legislature should cut their state funding by millions
Et tu, Oklahoma?
What an amazing system of education the U.S. has.
Im assuming the taxpayers of Oklahoma pay for all this — like it or not.
It’s weird too, because for decades almost every college town has surely offered Cross-Dressing Night. Along with Ladies Nights etc.
What a country.
Considering that Marxist activists have taken over US higher education with the intention of destroying America, which they hate with all their being, no surprise… But they run the Board of Regents now too? The public’s representatives in directing the college’s policies and priorities? In Oklahoma?
This will be hard but we must put a stop to this nonsense pretty damn soon or else.
