CRANFORD -- During the spring semester of 2016, Sahna ElBanna, a Muslim student at Union County College, silently endured a business professor repeatedly saying all Muslims were terrorists, according to a lawsuit filed in Superior Court.

Despite feeling humiliated in front of her classmates, ElBanna said nothing, fearing any objection would hurt her grade and knowing the college discouraged students from contradicting an instructor, the court filing states.

The student's fears were realized the next semester, when she took another class with the professor, heard the same discriminatory comments and finally asked the instructor to stop. Despite receiving "A"s on the two assignments worth 60 percent of her grade, ElBanna said the professor, Toby Grodner, gave her an "F," for the class, the lawsuit states.
