Case Overview

FIRE Victory closed

On February 7, 2025, New Jersey’s Rowan University suspended its FIREfor Justice in Palestine chapter after receiving complaints that the organization’s welcome week flyer, which depicted a masked man with a keffiyeh holding a slingshot, glorified violence. On February 14, FIREsent a public records request to the university and that the poster is protected expression. On February 18, the SJP chapter announced it had been reinstated.
