ACLU Takes Legal Action Against University of Michigan for Banning Pro-Palestinian Protesters from Campus


Jonathan Zou, a student at the University of Michigan, was arrested during a pro-Palestinian protest and subsequently banned from all university campuses except for attending class or seeking medical care. Zou is one of five individuals represented by the ACLU in a lawsuit against the University of Michigan for violating their right to free speech. The lawsuit accuses the university of abusing its authority to ban people from public property.

The pro-Palestinian protests that swept college campuses last spring resulted in thousands being arrested, with some still facing legal challenges as they pursue their education. President Trump recently signed an executive order calling for action to combat antisemitism on college campuses.

Michigan has been deeply affected by tensions over the Israel-Hamas war, leading to unrest on University of Michigan campuses and clashes between police and protesters. The ACLU’s lawsuit seeks to lift the trespass bans on the individuals and prevent the university from issuing similar bans in the future.

The ceasefire between Hamas and Israel has brought temporary relief to the conflict, but the possibility of resumed fighting looms. The lawsuit highlights the impact of the bans on the individuals’ daily lives, education, and ability to freely protest on campus.
