    Charlie Kirk was shot and killed at Utah Valley University on September 10. The conservative activist’s death sent shockwaves through political circles. In the weeks since, a movement to idolize him has gained momentum.

    Charlie Kirk assassination

    This has sparked a sharp backlash on some college campuses. Students are now questioning the elevation of Kirk’s status to that of a national martyr.

    Students Question a “National Hero” Narrative

    An artwork depicting Kirk hugging Jesus Christ recently went viral online. It featured one of his quotes about his Christian faith. A sculpture with a similar theme is also planned for display at a university in Florida.

       

    This deification has left some students baffled. Alana, a student at Utah Valley University, spoke to The Guardian about her surprise. She stated that Kirk was not a “national hero or politician.” She emphasized he was “just a white man with a loud opinion.”

    Conservative activists also visited Tennessee State University on September 23. They wore political hats and carried signs with divisive slogans. The event was framed as a tribute to the late activist.

    A TSU junior told The Guardian she felt terrified by the group’s unannounced presence. The university later clarified that demonstrations require advance approval. The incident highlighted the ongoing tensions on campuses.

    Expulsions and Broader Student Concerns Follow

    The aftermath of the killing also led to student disciplinary actions. According to The Guardian, at least two Black students in Texas were expelled. Their removals followed viral videos that allegedly mocked Kirk’s death.

    One student was arrested for an assault citation during a campus vigil. She is no longer enrolled at her university. Another student filmed himself imitating the assassination.

    Texas Governor Greg Abbott called for that student’s expulsion on social media. The student later withdrew from the university voluntarily. These cases show the intense emotions surrounding the event.

    Other students are confused by the amount of attention the situation receives. A sophomore at Swarthmore College spoke to The Guardian about her perspective. She said her focus remains on the genocide in Palestine rather than on Kirk.

    She stated she would rather push back against that large-scale political violence. She added she prefers not to dwell on a figure who she says profited from “fear-mongering.”

    The debate over Charlie Kirk’s legacy and the campus response to his assassination reveals deep political divisions. How universities navigate this sensitive period will be closely watched. The conversation about free speech, idolization, and grief continues to evolve.
