A Jewish graduate who sued a university and said she was delayed from graduating because her essay did not criticise Israel has been awarded an undisclosed sum from the University of Leeds.
Danielle Greyman has settled her legal claim with the institution, which will pay her the money, without any admissions, under a “commercial settlement” of her claim for damages. The University of Leeds agreed to the settlement on the condition that it did not recognise any wrongdoing on its part.
The sociology graduate said her coursework was wrongly failed because it did not blame Israel for the crimes of Hamas against the Palestinians.
