A Conversation with "Campusland" Author Scott Johnston

  • Farmington Country Club 1625 Country Club Circle Charlottesville, VA, 22901 United States (map)

Due to the generosity of The Jefferson Council member Virginia Cenedella, TJC was pleased to host an evening reception featuring satirical author Scott Johnston. His book Campusland is a hilarious and prophetic spoof of wokeness run amok at a thinly fictionalized Yale University. In the five years since its publication, the insanity festering at Ivy League universities has gone national. Now living in Charlottesville, Johnston is eminently qualified to talk about what’s happening today on college campuses, including the University of Virginia.

Thank you to all The Jefferson Council members and friends who attended this evening reception!
