West Point professor alleges free speech violation
Tim Bakken, the longest serving law professor at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, filed a lawsuit against his school on Monday for allegedly violating his free speech rights with a new policy instituted under President Trump.
The lawsuit, filed in the federal court in New York, pushes back on a rule called the “Academic Engagement Policy” that says academics must get permission before attending events or publishing papers in their official capacity.
