On August 21st， a news story about a Chinese international student suing a U.S. university for $100 million has garnered significant attention.
The student， identified as Wei Linglong (phonetic)， pursued a Master’s degree in Horticulture at Michigan State University from 2008 to 2011， and it is this institution that is now facing legal action.
The female student claims that while working as a student research assistant conducting fieldwork， she was instructed to spray hazardous pesticides and herbicides at dangerous dosages without adequate training or protective equipment. She alleges cumulative exposure to dangerous pesticides exceeding 7，000 hours， including chemicals such as diquat， glyphosate， and ethofumesate.
She reported experiencing breathing difficulties starting in 2010. However， the university’s health center attributed these symptoms to anxiety， and her advisor reassured her that the chemicals were “safe.” Due to fear and trust in her advisor， she continued her work.
Last year， on June 26th， she was diagnosed with papillary thyroid cancer and underwent a series of treatments， including thyroidectomy surgery.
Although her condition has improved， she is left with permanent scarring， faces potential hormonal imbalances， possible fertility issues， and a risk of recurrence. She also requires lifelong medication and is battling depression.
Seeking to hold the university accountable， she has filed a lawsuit against multiple entities， including Michigan State University， its Board of Trustees， the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources， the Department of Horticulture， and the Office of International Students and Scholars.
The lawsuit details Wei Linglong’s claimed losses， which encompass past and future medical expenses， lost wages， caregiving costs， household services， mileage expenses， and compensation for pain and suffering， totaling approximately $100 million.
