A federal court has dismissed the case of an Ohio professor who claims that his religious
freedom was violated when his employer disciplined him for knowingly and repeatedly
misgendering a student. Humanities professor Nicholas Meriwether came into conflict with
Shawnee State University, where he has worked since 1996, after they issued him a written
disciplinary warning over his persistent refusal to use a transgender woman’s correct title and pronouns. Meriwether, an evangelical Christian, argued that his religious convictions required him to use masculine titles and pronouns for the student, referred to in legal documentation only as Jane Doe. U.S. District Judge Susan Dlott dismissed Meriwether's case.
