A coalition of progressive student activist groups at Arizona Student University said they are moving ahead with plans to protest against Kyle Rittenhouse taking classes on campus, even after the university said he is no longer a student.
Rittenhouse, the 18-year-old who was recently cleared of all charges against him after shooting and killing two men and injuring another in self-defense at an August 2020 protest in Kenosha, Wisconsin, previously enrolled in an ASU online nursing program. This non-degree-seeking program doesn’t require applicants to go through the typical admissions process, but allows them to use the classes they take as prerequisite credits to later apply for admission to the university’s nursing school.
