This makes it clear that leftist students are actively trying to do this. They do not want TPUSA to expand its reach.

Student brags about getting Loyola U. New Orleans to reject TPUSA chapterA Democratic student leader at Loyola University New Orleans bragged over the weekend about the impact of her advocacy when the student government denied an “official university organization” charter for Turning Point USA.Juleea Berthelot, a student and vice president of National Students for a Democratic Society, made the remark during a panel discussion at a National Alliance Against Racist & Political Repression conference, which took place over the weekend in Chicago.“TPUSA chapter is trying to get chartered on our campus, and we said hell no,” Berthelot said, according to a video of her remarks, posted on X by Manhattan Institute investigative analyst Stu Smith.“We showed up to the student Senate meeting with over 100 students… and they were denied their charter, which was a huge win for us,” Berthelot said.In late October, the Jesuit university’s student government voted to reject the conservative student group’s request. As a result, the group will not be able to “access university fund[s] or reserv[e] campus spaces for events,” The Maroon student newspaper reported at the time.Students from the campus Students from Democratic Society attended the meeting, with student Rosalina Framboise saying that TPUSA stands in “direct opposition” to the school’s Jesuit values such as “care for the whole person and special care for the poor and oppressed,” The College Fix reported previously.The late TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk’s past remarks about transgenderism and “gender fluidity” also create a “hostile educational environment,” Framboise said.During the weekend conference, Berthelot linked her activism against the TPUSA chapter to larger anti-Trump efforts.“We’re fighting back against the expansion of the Trump agenda and his goons’ control on college campuses, and that looks like fighting back, making sure that TPUSA chapters do not get established on our campuses,” Berthelot said.
