Texas American Muslim University sued by Paxton, accused of misleading would-be students

Attorney General Ken Paxton on Monday sued a group calling itself Texas American Muslim University, accusing it of operating without state approval, misleading prospective students and using a name too similar to Texas A&M.

The lawsuit asks a Collin County judge to stop the group that promoted itself as TexAM from operating as a private university in the state without approval from the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. It also seeks to bar TexAM from using names, logos or branding that could confuse people into thinking it is connected to Texas A&M University or the Texas A&M University System.
