Donors are calling for Wichita State University's president to be fired after he canceled a virtual speech by Ivanka Trump for its technical school's graduation. The Wichita Eagle reports that a former member of the Kansas higher education system's Board of Regents told the board that the decision by university President Jay Golden threatens a multimillion-dollar relationship with Koch Industries. The vast conglomerate is led by billionaire and conservative political donor Charles Koch. The Board of Regents has scheduled a special meeting for Wednesday. Golden took over as university president in January following the death of former President John Bardo.
