California State University reached a settlement with the California Faculty Association requiring the system to notify employees before disclosing personal information to federal agencies investigating campus antisemitism, the LA Times reported. The suit followed Cal State LA’s transfer of identifying details for 2,600 employees to the EEOC in an ongoing probe. Under the agreement, CSU must inform affected employees “as soon as reasonably practical” before complying with subpoenas related to the EEOC investigation unless legally prohibited. The settlement defines personal information broadly — from social security numbers to statements attributed to individuals — and balances notification with legal obligations to cooperate with federal inquiries. Campus HR and legal teams should update subpoena-response protocols and employee communications practices. Faculty unions and systems nationwide will likely review similar disclosure practices and push for clearer notice protections when institutions interact with federal civil-rights investigations.
