Texas A&M lecturer sues after termination tied to gender-identity discussion
TL;DR
A Texas A&M senior English lecturer sues the university in federal court, alleging her firing last year over a classroom video about a student’s objection to a gender-identity lesson violated her First Amendment free-speech rights and due process. The university says the firing was upheld despite independent reviews finding no cause, and it will vigorously defend the suit. The case unfolds as Texas A&M moves to end its women’s and gender studies program and state policies tighten limits on classroom discussions of gender and race.
