Ummmmmm.... There's this little thing called the First Amendment. They are in blatent violation. If Publicly funded schools can't have prayers because it violates the phantom separation of Church and State, then a Publicly funded school violating a company's executive's freedom of speech, is a blatent violation.

Davidson College is coming out in support of perverting marriage. Nice.

Didn’t the Feds allow public universities to kick out the ROTC?

The suspension came after the chain's president sparked a national debate by speaking out against same-sex marriage.

Yet the chain didn't discriminate or refuse service to gays

So much for the tolerance these institutions of higher learning espouse.

OH NO!!! Why this will have to be a separate line item on the 2012 income statement. Please tell me that similar action won’t be taken at the East Armit, NJ community college. That would be devastating news!

Have a suggestion for those libtards who have issues with Chik-Fil-A and refuse to east one of their tasty Chik-Fil-A sandwiches: try Esad. It’s made just for you. I’d like lots of libtards to try Esad. It’s made naturally. Some versions of Esad include corn. For those who try Esad, but think it stinks, try Foad as a great alternative.

The college might as well put up a sign saying, “Christians are not permitted as they don’t reflect Davidson College values.”

If there is any doubt that many of today’s schools and colleges are socialist indoctrination centers, this type of crap removes that doubt.

More big govt dictates on what we eat, what we drink, where we will wok, live, and play.

If my kid was in that school, I’d cut off the money until s/he changed to a different school.

The camel not only has his head in the (socialist) tent, he’s all the way in, except for the ass, and it’s in the White House.

FYI - Davidson College is not a public college - it’s a Presbyterian college.

"FYI - Davidson College is not a public college - it’s a Presbyterian college."

Back in the 80's the SBC had to clean house at a few SBC colleges to get rid of rampant liberalism. Sounds like the Presbyterians need to do the same.

Funny, considering it is a Presbyterian College.

Let the lawsuits begin. The Left lives by lawsuits. The Left is going to die by lawsuits.

The math is quite easy to do.

More liberal boycotts = more sales revenue for Chick-fil-A

Never heard of Davidson. Maybe they’re trying to use this to make a name for themselves. Sort of like Hillsboro tried to make a name for itself with the so called “Scopes Monkey Trial.”

Oops! Not Hillsboro. . .Dayton. Hillsboro was the fictional town in the play “Inherit the Wind”. Dayton was the actual town where the trial occurred.

Yep, I saw that. Georgetown University is Christian school, too. (sarc) I noticed that they want to ban Chik-Fil-A so that they can be “inclusive” to all people. It seems like their student government board has created a hostile environment for Christians that actually practice their faith. If they wanted to be inclusive they would invite other food chains that represent owners with different faiths. No... they’ve joined the popular secular movement in calling all people who believe in the Bible “haters” and non-inclusive. It gives the school a black-eye.
