Ivanka Trump snub at Wichita State could threaten WSU president's job, Koch support

[demmiblue]

Wichita State donors are threatening to cut ties and pull support from the university if the Kansas Board of Regents don’t dump president Jay Golden for canceling Ivanka Trump’s commencement speech.

The flap over cancellation of President Trump’s daughter’s speech to students at the university’s separate trade-school campus threatens a multi-million-dollar relationship with Wichita’s largest private corporation, Koch Industries, according to a former state regent with deep ties to WSU.

The Kansas Board of Regents has called a special meeting Wednesday afternoon to reportedly decide Golden’s future at the university.

Wichita State announced late last week that Trump would be the speaker at the WSU Tech graduation. Following swift backlash from faculty, students and alumni about the Trump administration’s response to protests against racist policing and concerns that violent protests could erupt at the university, Golden canceled Trump’s keynote speech Thursday evening.

Now they are trying to "cancel" the WSU President.

Of course, Ivanka will come out supporting him saying she still thinks cancel culture is...

Oh, who am I kidding.
