As silence filled the room, Rep. Cain finally spoke his first few words, but was cut off again, this time, by TSU President Dr. Austin lane.

“Officers, to the students out in the hallway, let them in," Dr. Lane told the police officers.

Lane announced organizers did not take appropriate measures to schedule the speech.

“What you’re seeing today is an unapproved event," Dr. Lane said.

So it was all over — for now. But Caldwell says he did everything right.

“I know, for a certainty, that I followed every step required for our handbook," said Daniel Caldwell, Student Chapter President for The Federalist Society.

Hoo boy. Dr. Lane might wanna take a hot second to consider that the Texas state legislature has a bit to say about how TSU is funded.

It's becoming abundantly clear that state legislatures need to take a far, far more proactive role in supporting viewpoint diversity on campus.

    The Federalist Society needs to file a lawsuit against the school, the protest groups, and Dr. Lane for violating their civil rights.

    If the student can show he jumped through all the hoops, then the Administration is in trouble if they sue. And, they should.
