California State University faculty sue over disclosure of personal information
"The California Faculty Association has sued the California State University after the university system handed over the personal phone numbers and email addresses of 2,600 Los Angeles campus employees to the federal government in response to an antisemitism investigation. The lawsuit - filed last week - seeks a court order prohibiting CSU administrators from disclosing any faculty members' personal information in response to federal subpoenas without first providing notice to the impacted employees and giving them the opportunity to object."
"While California is leading the nation in our efforts to fight the targeting and harassment of educators, government employees, LGBTQ folks, immigrants, and Black and Brown communities, CSU capitulated without a fight to the Trump Administration's witch hunt of faculty. We are suing for accountability of the CSU administration and we demand they do more to protect faculty, students and academic freedom."
California faculty union filed suit against the California State University after CSU provided personal phone numbers and email addresses for 2,600 Cal State LA employees to federal investigators pursuing an antisemitism probe. The complaint seeks a court order barring CSU from disclosing faculty personal information in response to federal subpoenas without first notifying affected employees and allowing them to object. CSU officials said the Trump administration subpoenaed Cal State LA as part of a U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission inquiry into alleged antisemitism tied to campus protests and a Gaza Solidarity Encampment. The union demands greater protections for faculty, students, and academic freedom while protests and hunger strikes occurred across multiple CSU campuses.
