Bishop v. Aronov was a 1991 legal case in which Phillip A. Bishop, an exercise physiology professor at the University of Alabama, sued the college on free speech and academic freedom grounds, when it instructed him not to teach "intelligent design theory" in an extra-curricular class and not to lecture on "evidences of God in Human Physiology" in class. The Federal District found in favor of Bishop but the university appealed and the Appeals Court found that the classroom, during instructional time, was not an open forum, and that the university had a right to set the curriculum.
