Professor at ASU Says Conservatives Feel Unsafe on Campus

 The murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk in Utah has sparked unease on the Arizona State University campus, where students and faculty say the shock of the news is still sinking in.

What looked like a normal day of classes in Tempe felt different, with some students describing a sense of heaviness and anxiety lingering across campus.

“I feel like the world is getting less safe,” said Neil, an ASU student.

Flags across campus were at half-staff in honor of Kirk. Some students told ABC15 they chose to stay home on Wednesday after learning of the news.

“I was supposed to go to class, but I decided not to go; it was hard to even focus on what I was supposed to be focusing on,” said student Quinn Kammeijer.
