Ann Coulter talk

Ann Coulter, political commentator and author, attracted a full house to her free talk Wednesday evening, hosted by the ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder student organization chapter of Turning Point USA. The crowd of students and community members gave her a few standing ovations. ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ 50 students walked out of the talk, which focused on immigration policy, in protest.
