UC Berkeley settles lawsuit, will pay $70,000 to cover legal costs of Berkeley College Republicans and Young America's Foundation

"The University of California at Berkeley on Monday settled a free speech lawsuit accusing the school of discriminating against speakers with conservative views."



"Under the settlement filed with the federal court in San Francisco, the university will modify its procedures for handling "major events," which typically draw hundreds of people, and agreed not to charge "security" fees for a variety of activities, including lectures and speeches."

"It will also pay $70,000 to cover legal costs of the Berkeley College Republicans and the Tennessee-based Young America's Foundation, which filed the lawsuit in April 2017."
