Last fall, the USC Young Americans for Freedom (USC YAF) brought Ben Shapiro to campus as part of Young America’s Foundation’s Fred Allen Lecture Series. The event drew thousands of students, filling our campus’s largest venue to capacity with hundreds more having to be turned away after we ran out of space. This success came despite multiple attempts by the USC Undergraduate Student Government (USG) to stifle the success of our Shapiro lecture.

Despite it being a new year and a new semester, USG is continuing their assault on conservatives.
