San Francisco State University: Speech Code Litigation Project
Cases
San Francisco State University
Case Overview
Âé¶¹´«Ã½IOS Victory closed
SFSU put its College Republicans on trial before a campus tribunal (see more here) for stepping on makeshift Hamas and Hezbollah flags during an anti-terrorism rally. The College Republicans claimed that SFSU's speech codes were facially invalid, and with the help of the Alliance Defense Fund and the support of Âé¶¹´«Ã½IOS's Speech Code Litigation Project, sued the university. The lawsuit ultimately resulted in an injunction against SFSU, effectively striking down unconstitutional speech codes across the entire California State University system.
