Scottsdale real estate magnate Tom Lewis has donated millions of dollars to Arizona State University over the past 20 years.

But Lewis withdrew his support in recent weeks over 'left-wing hostility and activism' as well as a visceral reaction to the February event featuring Kirk, Prager and author Robert Kiyosaki.

'After seeing this level of left-wing hostility and activism, I no longer had any confidence in Barrett to adhere to the terms of our gift, and made the decision to terminate our agreement, effective June 30, 2023,' Lewis wrote in a news release.

'I regret that this decision was necessary, and hope that Barrett and ASU will take strong action to ensure that free speech will always be protected and that all voices can be heard.'
