The American Civil Liberties Union is suing the University of California San Diego after administrators and the student government cut funding for the student press in retaliation for a controversial article published by the satirical paper, The Koala.
The ACLU’s legal filing quotes extensively from university officials’ correspondence and Bias Incident Report Forms submitted by offended students, providing insight into the attitudes toward free speech on UCSD’s campus.
Last November, The Koala poked fun at PC culture in an article entitled “UCSD Unveils New Dangerous Space on Campus,” using racial epithets and mocking trigger warnings and safe spaces. It discusses the creation of a so-called “dangerous space” to accommodate “individuals who do not like feeling safe . . . continuing the university’s theme of inclusion and equality.”
