TL;DR Summary

The Supreme Court declined to lift the ban on a "PG-13" drag show at West Texas A&M University, siding with the university's president who has described drag shows as "derisive, divisive and demoralizing." The LGBTQ student group, Spectrum WT, argued that their free speech rights were violated, but the court's decision means the event likely won't be held on campus. The dispute arose after a similar event was blocked last year, and despite the group's efforts to show support for the LGBTQ community without lewd or profane activity, the ban remains in place.
