This chapter started because of the horrific assassination of our founder, Charlie Kirk. Unsure of what to do, a few students with a passion for the mission behind TPUSA decided to start a chapter at Shawnee State University, with NO idea what to do next or how to run a successful chapter. They never could have expected all that this chapter would bring.
We gathered together to mourn the loss and celebrate the life of a patriot, hero, and martyr, Charlie Kirk. This is for you, CK.
We had overwhelming, unbelievable support from this community.
We created unexpected, amazing friendships. We truly became a family!
We sang blind karaoke at 2 AM, if you know, you know.
We traveled across the country, and met some of the most incredible voices in the conservative movement at AmericaFest.
We worshipped Jesus Christ on and off campus, spreading the good news of the Gospel that Charlie fought so hard to share.
We had productive conversations with those who we disagree with. We picked up the mic.
We had a group of TPUSA students create a worship band!
We were recognized by TPUSA HQ with a Patriot Award.
We saw minds working, souls stirring, and hearts changing.
We give all of the glory to GOD!
For far too long, conservatives have been silenced on college campuses. Too scared to speak out, to disagree, to make any real noise. Finally, at Shawnee State University, conservatives have a place. YOU belong in Turning Point USA. You deserve to be heard.
These two semesters have been nothing short of incredible…and the best part? This is the VERY beginning. This is THE Turning Point.
On behalf of the chapter, seriously, thank you so much for all of the support.
And because I, the social media manager, am sure that they’re reading, thanks to the blocked and restricted trolls in our comments section who boosted our social media. You guys truly have been our biggest FANS this semester!!!!! I mean, wow!! 🙌🏻🤩
A new board for next year has been elected, and will be announced soon! Keep following, liking, and sharing this page. Help us keep the movement going strong.
