Campus Reform | University suspends TPUSA club for criticizing Chinese Communist Party

Emerson College s Turning Point USA chapter could be banned from campus after students reported them for handing out stickers critical of the Chinese Communist Party. 

The sticker features a character from the popular video game Among Us with a hammer and sickle on its side and has a caption that reads China kinda sus.

Sus is an abbreviation for suspicious commonly used by gamers.

A number of students, organizations, and college officials have condemned Emerson TPUSA, claiming that the sticker promotes bigotry towards Asians. 

William P. Gilligan, Emerson s Interim President, called the stickers disturbing and claimed that they featured anti-Chinese messaging inconsistent with the College s values. Per an email the president sent to Emerson s student body September 30, an official investigation into the incident has been launched.
