The director for student involvement and leadership at Rutgers University is calling for the removal of two officers of the school’s Turning Point USA chapter, for their involvement in a petition calling for the removal of a professor nicknamed ‘Dr. Antifa.’
Karima Woodyard, Rutgers’ director of student involvement and leadership, wrote in an email obtained by Fox News Digital that both Megyn Doyle, the chapter’s treasurer, and Ava Kwan, its outreach coordinator, should be removed from their positions and replaced through new elections. Woodyard argued that both students were ineligible to hold their positions.
The chapter is already facing a petition on Change.org for its removal, which has been signed by at least one professor at the university. The petition as of Wednesday has well over 6,500 signatures.
“I wanted to bring to your attention that Megyn is a Newark student and Ava is a graduate student,” Woodyard wrote in the email directed to the Chapter President Stephen Wallace and Chapter Vice President Victoria Sorbat. “Because your organization is classified as an undergraduate student organization for the New Brunswick campus, both individuals are ineligible to hold executive board positions within your group.”
