US 6th district court ruled in favor of university the Professor who was fired for refusing to use a student’s preferred pronouns. He was denied the compromise of using no pronouns at all rather than calling a male student identifying as female by feminine pronouns. The opinion is the 2nd link below and really worth a read. The court ruled it was a violation of his freedom of speech and an attempt to compel him to speak against his beliefs. It seems like a very important opinion on a broader scale as underscores the importance of these freedoms particularly in a university setting where the free exchange of ideas is paramount to society as a whole.
