The university is exploring potential legal responses after two men came on campus the day after the election with misogynistic and homophobic signs.
Students walk through the quad on the first day of the fall semester at Texas State University in San Marcos on Aug. 24, 2020.
The two men were not Texas State students, faculty or staff, Damphousse said. The student newspaper, The University Star, reported the men were with the Official Street Preachers, a website that writes about current events “from a Christian perspective.” Texas law requires public universities to keep outdoor campus spaces open for “expressive activities” for any individual to use, including people unaffiliated with campus. Individuals or groups do not need to give prior notice to the university that they will use those areas.
In his letter, Damphousse said the incident was especially disturbing after an emotionally charged presidential election.
