The California State University (CSU) system’s board of trustees meeting Tuesday was shaken by a stampede of emotional residents and alumni reacting to a decision to sue the federal government. CSU and San Jose State University announced Friday they are filing the lawsuit to challenge the U.S. Department of Education’s recent findings that SJSU violated Title IX in its handling of a transgender volleyball player from 2022-24.Tuesday’s meeting turned into a war of words.
