...think those qualifications are discriminatory. Who then are we to say that the military would function as well as it does today if it had openly gay members? How can we keep ROTC off campus on the grounds that they discriminate while going out of our way to let HRCF do so? One might be tempted to say that it is a simple case of anti-military bias to allow HRCF to discriminate in the selection of its officers while denying the armed forces the ability to do the same on campus. Then again, one would hate to question University...
Last December, I led the campaign against giving HRCF an Undergraduate Council grant on the grounds that HRCF requires that its officers “subscribe without reserve” to the organization’s “Principles of Faith;” namely, “the Deity and Humanity of our Lord Jesus Christ” and other tenets of Christianity.

By strongly prohibiting already non-discriminatory groups from discriminating and yet opening up a loophole for HRCF, the CCL has made a mockery of the very idea of non-discrimination policies...
...reasonable step toward allowing ethnic organizations to bar those of other ethnicities from their leadership. And if that’s the case, why should organizations like the Fly or the Seneca be barred from College recognition for discriminating on the basis of sex? Perhaps the CCL thinks HRCF is a special case because its discrimination is a matter of religious faith. Note to final clubs: If I were you, I would have one of your members become ordained as a minister online for free, call my group’s members “officers selected by the current...
