A federal lawsuit that alleged history of racial discrimination at Texas Christian University has been settled, according to court documents.
The lawsuit was originally filed in January 2020 by a former Black TCU honors student who said she was “dehumanized, harassed and discriminated against” over a period of two years and was paid less than white students at a campus job.
The suit also accused TCU of being “bigoted, narrow-minded and hypocritical in its treatment of racial minorities.”
The case was broadened to include several other plaintiffs, some of whom were later dropped from the case.
