University of Chicago Faces Civil Rights Lawsuit Over Alleged Retaliatory Eviction of Student Protester

The University of Chicago is facing a civil rights lawsuit filed by a former student who alleges wrongful eviction from his dormitory following his participation in a peaceful protest against Israel’s actions in Gaza. The complaint argues that the eviction violated the student’s First Amendment rights. This legal move comes in the wake of a similar discrimination complaint against the university by Palestine Legal in the previous fall.
