Update, 3:05 p.m. on Monday, October 21:

According to the vice president of facilities for the Acacia fraternity, Acacia will no longer host the “Team Trump Bus Tour” on Tuesday, October 22. The manager, Craig Riedinger, said the campaign is considering other venues.

“Acacia supports freedom of speech and political discourse and is grateful a presidential campaign would want to visit,” Riedinger said in a statement to Onward State.

“However, we are not appropriately staffed to meet the security and logistical requirements for such a visit. Acacia Fraternity is a non-partisan organization dedicated to fostering personal development, leadership, and brotherhood among our members. As an international fraternity, we do not endorse, support, or align ourselves with any political party, candidate, or ideology. Our focus remains on creating an environment where individuals of all backgrounds and beliefs feel welcome and respected.”

A group of Donald Trump campaigners is set to stop at Penn State’s Acacia fraternity on Tuesday, October 22, as part of the “Team Trump Bus Tour” in Pennsylvania. The group will stop at the 234 Locust Lane fraternity at 3:45 p.m. as its third stop of the day.

The group will include Lieutenant Governor of California Abel Maldonado, former Chief of Staff of the Department of Defense Kash Patel, and former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Public Affairs Monica Crowley. Trump will not make an appearance.

The group’s appearance comes as political campaigners descend upon State College as Election Day approaches. Former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy appeared at the Sparks Building on Thursday, October 17, and Democratic congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez appeared at the State Theatre on Friday, October 18.
