(Logan, UT) – Utah State University will pay 140-thousand dollars in a lawsuit settlement after a student committed suicide over alleged racist bullying by her classmates. Twenty-four-year-old Jerusha Sanjeevi was a doctorate student from Malaysia studying psychology. According to the family’s lawsuit, classmates of Sanjeevi singled her out in 2016 for having a “weird Asian name,” and told her she wouldn’t be at USU if she wasn’t an international student. The family also asserted a pattern of favoritism and racism playing out for years prior to Sanjeevi’s suicide in 2017.
