Some students at Texas State University want to ban a group called Turning Point U-S-A. Bobcat Update's Darrell Green has the story.
The Student Government at Texas State has passed a bill that would prohibit Turning Point U-S-A, which is a conservative-leaning student organization. Student leaders say the group has created a hostile environment that includes the harassment of students and professors who don't agree with Turning Point's views. However, the president of the group says the ban infringes on their free speech rights.

In a statement, the Texas State administration says student government doesn't have the authority unilaterally to kick anyone off campus. Such bans would be the result of university-imposed disciplinary sanctions.
