Utah Valley University's Vigil and Coverage, Not Brigham Young

Showing 6 Brigham Young University videos from Charlie Kirk's video collection.

The material gathered here is actually about Utah Valley University (UVU), the campus where Charlie Kirk was assassinated, not neighboring Brigham Young University — worth stating directly, since the two are separate Utah institutions roughly 15 miles apart and only one incidental connection exists between them: a BYU chemistry professor was among the speakers invited to UVU's campus vigil for unity, held shortly after the shooting to help the community grieve and reaffirm shared values. The vigil itself emphasized peace and togetherness explicitly, opening with instructions for attendees to move toward the center of the venue and maintain a reverent atmosphere throughout. Separate firsthand accounts from students and reporters who were on campus that day, including Deseret News reporter Eva Terry and eyewitness Brennan, who traveled from Clearfield specifically to witness the aftermath, describe the chaos and disbelief in the shooting's immediate wake. Candace Owens and Brian Entin each conducted separate investigations revisiting the UVU campus afterward, examining eyewitness testimony, rooftop access, and lingering questions about the shooting itself; specific unverified claims about witness ties to Turning Point USA or the government are not detailed further here given their speculative nature. None of this material examines Brigham Young University as an institution in any respect.
