FIRE statement on district court ruling in Spectrum WT v. Walter Wendler
On Thursday, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas denied FIRE’s request for a preliminary injunction in Spectrum WT v. Walter Wendler, and held that West Texas A&M University President Walter Wendler is entitled to qualified immunity.
The following quote may be attributed to FIRE Senior Attorney JT Morris:
FIRE strongly disagrees with the court’s approach to First Amendment analysis and its conclusions. We will appeal, and our fight for the expressive rights of these brave college students will continue.
