Los Angeles City College Is Accused of Censoring Student Journalists

The Student Press Law Center and the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education have accused officials at Los Angeles City College of engaging in a “pattern of interference” with the student newspaper, The Collegian, reports the Los Angeles Times. In a January 15 letter to the president of the Los Angeles Community College District’s Board of Trustees, the two groups said the board should urge the college’s president, Jamillah K. Moore, to comply with state laws protecting students’ rights to free speech.
