The University of Wyoming has settled with the Laramie evangelist who sued it for censoring his speech about a transgender student’s sex.
Todd Schmidt sued UW President Ed Seidel and Dean of Students Ryan O’Neil in June, six months after O’Neil had Schmidt cover part of a sign he displayed Dec. 2 from his reserved table in the UW Student Union. Then Seidel declared a one-year tabling ban on Schmidt presenting in the Union.

The sign was a commentary on the first transgender student accepted into the UW chapter of the Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority. It read, “God created male and female and Artemis Langford is a male.”
O’Neil had Schmidt cover Langford’s name on the sign.
