A federal judge on Monday blocked Texas State University from firing a professor who says the school punished him for an off-campus talk about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
U.S. District Judge Alan Albright ordered Texas State officials to maintain Idris Robinson’s employment contract, pay and university affiliation for one year or until the case is resolved, whichever is sooner, according to a news release from the Texas State Employees Union. A written order had not been issued as of Tuesday morning.
