Oh yes, more like this, please

A major victory for free speech: A federal judge ruled on March 11th that officials at the University of North Texas can be held personally responsible for firing a professor because they did not like his political opinions.
...
Nor is this the only story where officials at North Texas have moved to silence debate. In another case Uuniversity officials removed Professor Timothy Jackson, the editor of a music journal (which he also founded), and defunded the journal because Jackson had disagreed with another leftist professor. When Jackson sued, he also sued both the college and the individuals involved.

And like Hiers, the court in January ruled in Jackson’s favor, allowing the suit against those individuals to go forward.

Excellent.  It's a start.
