"VANCOUVER — A group of professors and a graduate student are taking the University of British Columbia to court to stop the school from engaging in "political activity," which they claim limits academic freedom and violates legislation requiring it to be non-political.
The petition filed in B.C. Supreme Court Monday says the school is breaching the University Act through the use of Indigenous land acknowledgments, promotion of equity and inclusion initiatives and by taking positions on the Israel-Palestine conflict."
