The California State University (CSU) system's board of trustees meeting Tuesday was shaken by a stampede of emotional residents and alumni reacting to a decision to sue the federal government. 

CSU and San Jose State University announced Friday they are filing the lawsuit to challenge the U.S. Department of Education's recent findings that SJSU violated Title IX in its handling of a transgender volleyball player from 2022-24.

Tuesday's meeting turned into a war of words. Many speakers ignored instructions to address the board and instead addressed other speakers in the crowd.

One woman, a CSU employee, said she showed up with the intention of discussing budget cuts but abandoned that plan to address "transphobia" by other speakers once she heard what they said.

"The fact that I have to get up here and have to say that trans women are women and that's what I have to use my time to do is absurd. Shame on you. Shame on all of you," she said.

The female employee then took aim at the "save women's sports" speakers who spoke from the perspective of lesbian women. 

"And shame on you for using lesbian politics as a front for your transphobia because this lesbian has had plenty of girlfriends with penises," she said.

The moderator then instructed the speakers to "please make your comments to the board. That's what we're here to hear." 

But other speakers did not direct their comments to the board.
