Fort Lewis College in Durango, CO, will have a Turning Point USA chapter!
The Fort Lewis College TPUSA leaders appealed the student government’s rejection of their application and won!
From The College Fix:
Zen Moreno, vice president of the TPUSA chapter, told The College Fix that conservative students experienced “tremendous support” from the community after the initial vote.Among their supporters were the Colorado House Republicans.The lawmakers sent a letter Thursday to college President Heather Shotton asking her to reconsider the school’s decision. They also urged the college to remain a place “where all students are free to speak, organize, and engage in civil dialogue.”“Free expression should never depend on political popularity,” the lawmakers wrote.Moreno told The Fix that the chapter filed “an appeal through the student court,” as well as “grievance forms on the discrimination” after the student government’s initial vote in October.He said campus administrators and the president of the Associated Students of Fort Lewis College also “met with the chapter founder Jonah Flynn to inform us of the appeal and grievance processes that were available to us.”
