Statement Regarding May 1 Charlie Kirk Event

25 April, 2025

We recognize that many students at UCSD may not share Charlie Kirk's political viewpoints, particularly on issues important to our campus community. At Turning Point UCSD, we deeply respect and value the diversity of opinions, and firmly believe in every individual's right to freely express their views.
