Drag Show Cancelled by WTAMU President
March 21, 2023 | Texas
Walter Wendell, the president of West Texas A&M University (WTAMU), wrote a letter explaining his reasoning for barring a drag performance from campus.
The email’s subject line reads “A Harmless Drag Show? No Such Thing,” while the first line states unambiguously, “West Texas A&M University will not host a drag show on campus.”
Wendell’s email, which was sent to students, staff, and faculty, came after students had planned to host a drag performance on campus to raise money for the Trevor Project, an organization that encourages transgender identification among youth. (Excerpt from Breitbart.)
