A pro-free speech group has filed a lawsuit against Indiana University President Pamela Whitten, the IU Board of Trustees and several administrators on the university’s Bloomington and Indianapolis campuses.
Speech First Inc. alleges that IU’s bias incident policy is designed to “deter, suppress, and punish disfavored and controversial speech,” especially among students with conservative views.
