@AndrewKolvet Based on this tweet, a governing body (SGA) elected by the population (students), voted on an issue. Sounds like democracy?

The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga has denied Turning Point USA’s RSO (Registered Student Organization) request following a vote by the Student Government Association. This decision effectively blocks our students from gaining official recognition on campus. As a result, the students will be forced to restart the process, reapplying and once again facing the same SGA that has already demonstrated clear bias against them. Tennessee, are these the values of your state? Your tax dollars are propping this garbage up.

@chrisschaum @TCU Wasn’t RUF on Mondays?

Several years ago, after the company I was an executive at was acquired, leaders from @TCU reached out to discuss my family’s potential support for the new TCU Sales Center and other initiatives. In that conversation, I asked a question that still troubles me today: why was the university fully funding a new trans, drag, and queer education program from general university resources, yet asking alumni to fund the existence of core business school programs? The @NeeleySchoolTCU , the Harris School of Nursing, and the Ranch Management program have long produced TCU’s most successful alumni, strongest donor base, and a steady pipeline of students. Shouldn’t these proven programs be prioritized for institutional support? Over the years, I’ve watched TCU evolve in ways many alumni no longer recognize. What was once a university rooted in free speech, Christian values, and a culture of open exchange has shifted toward a narrow ideological agenda. Alumni who once felt proud to give back now hesitate, uncertain whether the school’s current trajectory reflects the values that shaped their experience. When I attended TCU, it was a place where diverse ideas thrived. On Tuesday nights, I joined CEO (Collegiate Entrepreneurs Club). On Wednesdays, I attended RUF (Reformed University Fellowship). And on Thursdays, after philosophy club meetings, I debated ideas over drinks with classmates and professors until the early morning hours at the Pub. My friends came from many different religions, sexualities, political views, and backgrounds—yet we shared a commitment to inquiry, dialogue, respect, and a common moral foundation. Recently, at an event in Colorado, a family familiar with my TCU affiliation asked if I would want my children to attend. They had toured the campus twice and ultimately sent their kids to @SMU , saying its culture and community felt far closer to what I once experienced at TCU. For the first time, I realized that a school I had never considered might now be more aligned with my family’s values—just 45 minutes east of the place I once called home and where I met many of my best friends and my wife. I still hope TCU can reclaim its balance—championing world-class, mentor-driven education and genuine diversity of thought while preserving the traditions and programs that have long defined its excellence. Yet I worry that a small group of administrators and faculty, intent on advancing a DEI-centric agenda, may have already taken the university down a path that will be hard to reverse. The question for TCU—and for those of us who care deeply about its future—is whether it will return to the strengths that once set it apart, or continue down a course that alienates the very community that built it. If not, it risks ceding its place in higher education to institutions like SMU and other elite conservative institutions. As an alumnus, I once thought we only got the best of SMU when we hired @CoachSonnyDykes as our @TCUFootball coach. Now, I wonder if SMU may have something far more important—the values TCU has left behind.

@chloecole We lost 65-7 in the national championship. You can’t hurt us.

The show goes on, but not on campus.

The first college to actually thank me for speaking on their campus instead of cancelling me like @TCU just did! Christian colleges (and otherwise) need to step up to keep democracy and free speech alive in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination.

@CoachCrutchUNO @CoachCodyHop Congrats Coach!! Excited to see y’all keep it going!

@MarcIstook My dad was always my youth sports coach (soccer, baseball, basketball). He drafted my friends instead of the best kids available. We never made playoffs but always had fun and never hated sports. Now none of us ever went on to become professional athletes, so there is a cost 🙃

The anecdotes are bad enough but the stats tell an even more depressing story of just how many kids are quitting sports at an early age due to burnout. At a time when so many negative influences compete for our kids' attention, we need positive sports experiences more than ever.

@CBSSportsCBB @TCUBasketball OUU HIS BUTT 😈

@GottliebShow Would you bet your salary that Alabama will beat Michigan?

Would any of you “Florida State got screwed” people bet your salary that they would beat Michigan w/o Jordan Travis? Of course you would not

Hey @hulu_support these ad break encodes are crazy. Meaning not only can you not skip through breaks, but through a program either. Whether they’re at the network level or the local level, this issue is enough to drive me to YouTube 😳
