TCU claims scheduling conflict, not cancelation, for failing to host Chloe Cole event

Texas Christian University (TCU) says it did not cancel a Turning Point USA event with 'detransitioner' Chloe Cole, as a previous allegation claimed.

The College Fix reports that the Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is investigating the situation after "detransitioner' Chloe Cole said on X that Texas Christian University cancelled her by stopping a TPUSA event on campus.

She said in a different post that "the show goes on, but not on campus,” including a poster for the event. It is now scheduled to take place on Tuesday, October 7, at Birchman Baptist Church in Fort Worth, Texas with doors open at 6:30.

AFN talked with that Matt Lamb, associate editor of The College Fix. He explained this may not be the case.

"Chloe Cole, a woman who used to say that she was transgender, had surgery to look more like a man, and now criticizes transgenderism, said TCU cancelled her. It looks more like there was not enough time to plan," says Lamb.

He explained that TPUSA was organizing it, and they announced just last week that the event was happening, but that they didn't have a location.

"According to Chloe Cole, they were expecting 700 to 1000 students. The university said that the space they wanted was already booked. So, I would say it seems like this is more of a problem of trying to schedule a large event at the last minute," deduces Lamb.

TCU released a statement saying the room was previously booked and unavailable.

"I'm sure the university is wary of large events without proper security planning, especially in the wake of Charlie kirk's assassination," states Lamb.

Cole said further on X that Texas Christian University holds pride events, but that it will not allow Christian baptisms and events. She claimed TCU denied the October 7 event "despite many rooms being available according to students and faculty."

She wrote that, when they pressed the matter, TCU said "this is not open for discussion.
