Kent State University in Kent, Ohio, faced a deadline Friday, Feb. 9, 2018, to agree to rent space for Spencer's campus tour at an "acceptable date and time," or become the latest university to face a lawsuit over the tour. Tour organizer Cameron Padgett wanted Spencer to speak at the Ohio school on May 4, 2018, the anniversary of shootings that killed four students during Vietnam war protests in 1970, but the university said it couldn't accept the request because early May was too busy with activities around the end of the academic year.

CINCINNATI (AP) — Kent State University, facing the threat of a lawsuit, reiterated on Friday that it cannot accommodate a request to allow white nationalist Richard Spencer to speak in early May as part of his campus tour.

The university, which is based in Kent but has regional campuses elsewhere in the state, said it had responded to attorney Kyle Bristow reaffirming its earlier response that no suitable space is available for Spencer to speak between April 30 and May 12.

Bristow had told Kent State it had until the end of business Friday to agree to rent space at an "acceptable date and time" or face a lawsuit. Several other schools, including Ohio State University and the University of Cincinnati, are in litigation over Spencer.  https://www.yahoo.com/news/ohio-school-faces-deadline-white-nationalist-decision-151049171.html.  https://www.yahoo.com/news/ohio-school-faces-deadline-white-nationalist-decision-151049171.html
