The race for Boone County States Attorney has indeed heated up.  Tricia Smith sent out a glossy 8"x11" post card to county Republicans (shown above).  Bill Villont , retired Sergeant Belvidere Police Department, responded with a letter to editor in Boone County Journal (shown below)

Make certain that you see Bill Villont's "Whole Truth"--Tricia Smith makes money defending the gangs.

Citizens to Re-Elect Michelle Courier State's Attorney



Suffolk University severs ties with Koch-funded Beacon Hill Institute.

  Read the Boston Globe story here and our press statement here.

In a nation-wide push for transparency, students and professors at Koch-funded schools have amassed evidence demonstrating Charles Koch’s disregard for freedom in the classroom, an arena he considers to be up for sale to the highest bidder. We've compiled this research in a new whitepaper "Quid Pro Koch: The Kochs' Secret Higher Ed Agenda" and accompanying video which shows the growth of the Kochs' higher ed funding over time. 

We hope that by making these facts known, we will inspire other students to join our growing movement.
If you're a member of the media and you'd like to reach our team for comment, please contact Kalin Jordan at kalin@unkochmycampus.org.
You can download the whitepaper here, and watch the video below or online here.
You can also view our interactive "heat map" showing the rise of Koch funding on campus below.
