Religious College Group May Have to Admit Gays for Funding
The United States Supreme court is pondering if a College Christian group at a California Law School has to admit homosexuals and non-believers in order to gain campus status.
The case was brought to the attention of the US Supreme court after a chapter of the Christian Legal Society at the University of California’s Hastings College of the Law brought an appeal before the Justices. They argue that they do not receive funding and benefits as a group because of a policy of exclusion. In an initial judgement, a federal judge ruled against the Chapter, indicating that the college made it clear that they recognized campus groups with an inclusion policy as a part of their evaluations.
Still, the chapter seeks to receive such funding and benefits despite the fact that refuse to open membership to gays, lesbians and nonbelievers – a requirement of the San Francisco school.
The 30-member Hasting group appealed that decision and are seeking to have the requirements changed to accomodate thier own policies.
