"It’s what frustrates me, there are going to be some males in our society that will refuse to vote for a potential female president because they don’t think females are smart enough to be president. We can line all those guys up and shoot them," the instructor, who has now left the university, told his students.

In another incident, an admissions officer at Gettysburg College in Pennsylvania was caught calling Trump supporters, "no different than the piece of s--- human you stand behind," in a heated social media repost.

The post also accuses Trump supporters of tolerating "rape," "xenophobia" and "homophobia" among many other accusations.

"Being a conservative on a college campus immediately puts a target on the backs of some students," Sturge told Fox News Digital. "Students are receiving backlash and verbal abuse from peers and from professors for their views. Some students receive lower grades from professors because of those conservative views and in many cases are treated differently by university administrations."

Despite this hostility towards conservatives, Sturge believes Trump is making inroads with members of Gen Z, some of whom will be first-time voters this election.

Sturge also said that the economy and inflation are the top voting issues for these first-time voters, issues which polls indicate Trump has an advantage with voters on, over Vice President Kamala Harris.

"I talk to members of Gen Z every single day. They're talking about how the Biden-Harris economic policies have made their lives so much more difficult under this administration," she said.
