From Fox News: A third attempt by students at Point Loma Nazarene University in San Diego to establish a school-supported Turning Point USA (TPUSA) chapter was denied by the university’s Associated Student Body (ASB) Board of Directors.
The decision was announced in an email sent to students by university President Kerry Fulcher Nov. 5.
“I felt silenced when I got that email,” said Luke Cole, the elected secretary of the chapter and a third-year student at the university. “I felt like I couldn’t speak anymore.”
The email, obtained by Fox News Digital, said the motion was brought to a vote by the ASB Board of Directors and failed to pass after a review process. The email expressed concerns over the organization’s Professor Watchlist. According to TPUSA’s website, the Professor Watchlist aims to “expose and document” professors who discriminate against conservative students.
“That practice is not aligned with ASB’s purpose of fostering constructive communication and interaction between students, faculty, and administration,” the rejection email from the Christian university stated.
It gets even more shocking:
The email also cited the club’s intent to affiliate with TPUSA Faith, an initiative that aims to “unite the Church” and “eliminate wokeism,” according to its website. Fulcher said that was a violation of the university’s church and parachurch policies.
Meanwhile, the Christian college allows other clubs, such as:
- A “B.R.E.A.K.” club which “emphasizes the importance of gender equality on a school campus.”
- A “Center for Justice and Reconciliation” group that focuses on “immigration and racial justice” and allows students to “process injustices in their communities.
