Controversy Surrounds ASU's Liberal Environment and Donor Withdrawal

Real estate magnate Tom Lewis has pulled a six-figure donation from Arizona State University (ASU), citing "left-wing hostility and activism" by faculty. Lewis, who has donated millions to ASU over the years, decided to rescind his annual $400,000 pledge to the university's honors college after faculty condemned a staff member for organizing on-campus events with conservative speakers. The faculty's reaction to the event led to the firing of the staff member, prompting Lewis to withdraw his support. He expressed concerns about the university's adherence to free speech and called for action to protect all voices.
