Court Says 11th Amendment Does Not Bar All Lawsuits against Public Colleges.
Jaschik, Scott
Chronicle of Higher Education, v40 n28 pA26 Mar 16 1994
A federal appeals court decision suggests that public colleges may not be covered by the Constitution's 11th amendment prohibiting state governments from being sued in federal court. By the ruling, the institution loses immunity by having funds other than state appropriations with which to pay damages in the lawsuits. (MSE)
