Anon believes the reverberations of this across universities is going to be huge. There's a good chance that if even 10% of the suit is awarded, large universities will be forced into an austerity mode that may include program eliminations. "X Studies" likely would be in the cross hairs first. Maybe along with Trump's press for free speech or lose fed dollars, the leftist indoctrination milieu will start crumbling. Maybe college will become affordable again, also.

A $500 billion civil lawsuit filed by a parent on Wednesday in San Francisco accused 45 defendants of defrauding and inflicting emotional distress on everyone whose "rights to a fair chance at entrance to college" were stolen through their alleged conspiracy.
