The recent resignation of the former president of New York University’s College Republicans chapter has sparked a lot of discussion. The president, Kaya Walker, stepped down following some comments she made about Barron Trump, the youngest son of former U.S. President Donald Trump.

Last year, Barron chose NYU’s Stern School of Business, which is celebrated as one of the premier business schools in America. Due to his father’s high-profile status, Barron’s presence at the school has inevitably drawn attention, though specific details about his life on campus have remained relatively private. Naturally, he is under the watchful eye of Secret Service agents, but beyond that, not much is known about how he’s adapting to this new stage in his life.

Kaya Walker, as president of NYU College Republicans, captured a fair bit of attention herself after commenting on Barron in an interview with Vanity Fair. Her remarks were perceived by some as critical, which led to her having to resign from her position.

Kaya had described Barron Trump as “sort of like an oddity on campus,” adding, “He goes to class, he goes home.” These statements were met with substantial online backlash, especially from the College Republicans of America (CRA), who felt her remarks didn’t align with their ‘values and principles.’

As media interest in the story grew, Kaya stepped down from her role as president on February 16. After a few days, she spoke to the New York Post to address the situation.

“I’ve been working really hard to support the conservative movement,” Kaya explained. “Being a Republican at NYU is challenging, but I’ve given everything to build our chapter. Membership has grown significantly, and we’ve had a fantastic time this past year.”
