The Tennessee Conservative [By David Seal] –
State Senator Brent Taylor (R-Memphis) has reported that he received a rapid response from University of Tennessee (UT) President Randy Boyd concerning a letter calling for potential disciplinary action of a UT employee that compared the Trump Administration’s handling of immigration enforcement to that of the Holocaust.
“After sending this letter to University of Tennessee President Randy Boyd about a radical activist on his staff who probably thinks the Germans also bombed Pearl Harbor, he immediately called me and said the university is handling it quickly.
We don’t need our tax dollars funding crazy radicals in our state university, and I appreciate President Boyd’s attention to this matter!” – said Senator Brent Taylor
Many conservatives have noted that university personnel have used their authority and influence over students to promote radical leftist ideology for the past few decades. Taylor will have no part of it where taxpayer funds are involved.
The Tennessee Conservative News will follow this issue and report any official statements made by the University of Tennessee.
The full text of Taylor’s letter to Boyd is pictured below.
