According to Tiedeman, South Carolina State Representative April Cromer contacted the Clemson College Republicans before reaching out to leadership after having seen the story of the dispensers on X, formerly known as Twitter.

“Rep. Cromer spoke with Clemson University’s President Jim Clements and Trustee Nicky McCarter, and the dispensers were promptly removed on September 16, 2023,” Tiedeman told Campus Reform. “The details as to why these dispensers were there are still being found out.”

“However, from what we’ve gathered from university administrators, the dispensers were funded as a capital project through the Graduate Student Government (GSG), but they did not receive approval from the university, which led to their eventual removal,” he continued.
