A conservative group at the public University of Wyoming has had its school funding revoked after they hosted an event featuring conservative commentator Dennis Prager.<\/h2>\n

The student newspaper at the University of Wyoming reported<\/a> last week that the student government\u2019s finance committee suspended the school\u2019s funding for it\u2019s Turning Point USA chapter until 2019, partially due to the group\u2019s decision to host conservative commentator Dennis Prager.<\/p>\n

According to the report, the finance committee alleges that Turning Point USA failed to follow certain protocols regarding event planning. They also allege that it was \u201cinappropriate\u201d to use their funds to host Prager.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think the question these students clearly need to ask themselves is, \u2018Was Prager\u2019s visit, was the ensuing mess worth it?\u2019\u201d a University of Wyoming student cited in the school\u2019s newspaper argued. \u201cSomebody could have done so much good with $10,000 so it\u2019s a shame to see students and student fees get used to promote Prager who will only profit on our backs.\u201d<\/p>\n

Monika Leininger, a graduate student, told the student newspaper that Turning Point USA was trying to divide the campus by bringing Prager to speak. \u201cTurning Point ended up being just as we thought they were,\u201d she argued. \u201cDisorganized, irresponsible in following University protocol and haphazard with the funds provided partly by student dues. They brought in a speaker that aimed to separate the Wyoming community and I\u2019m relieved they are given a probationary period to rethink their procedures in putting on events like this.\u201d<\/p>\n

Prager\u2019s lecture was entitled \u201cSocialism Makes People Selfish.\u201d Prior to its scheduled date, members of the student government attempted<\/a> to shut it down.<\/p>\n

Hunter McFarland, the school\u2019s director of diversity for the student government told<\/a> the College Fix prior to the event that he hoped the event would be canceled. Dennis Prager \u201cis an anti-academic, rape advocate who spews hate speech against Muslims, Black people, Latinas, and many other groups who deserve to be protected at the University of Wyoming,\u201d he said at the time.<\/p>\n

The school\u2019s Turning Point USA chapter President, Jessica Leach, says that they have begun the appeals process to reinstate their funding. \u201cWe have begun a formal appeals process to reinstate our funding by lodging a complaint with the RSO Funding Board,\u201d she explained. \u201cWe\u2019re also looking to maybe do a Go Fund Me page<\/a> and also start some fundraisers after the success of this event.\u201d<\/p>\n
