- A conservative group at MSU wants the school to investigate alleged comments made by a teacher to her students via email
- The professor is accused of creating an ‘uncivil environment’ for conservative voters
- Video shows the president of the MSU chapter of Turning Point USA explaining why he believes the comments in question were unacceptable
A professor at Michigan State University is being accused of violating school by policy by a conservative group at the school.
The MSU chapter of Turning Point USA alleges professor Alex Veenema sent an email to students allowing them to miss class following the results of the general election.
The chapter’s president, Alex Bitzan, says the professor allegedly alluded to conservative voters as supporters of misogyny, racism and hate.
“It hurts the ability to have that sort of open dialogue,” Bitzan said. “An accusation supporting racism and violence and attacking the personal character of her students because of who they voted for is not treating people with respect.”
