Ahhh, so here’s the rub — These colleges ACCEPT Federal government money!!
Here’s the paragraph that tells us that:
“According to the lawsuit, the Department of Education and other federal agencies provide billions of dollars annually ($4.2 billion in 2018) to “religious colleges and universities that discriminate against LGBTQ+ students.” That funding includes student financial aid, research grants, and other forms of funding. The lawsuit seeks a permanent injunction that would cut off all of that funding.”
That my FRiends, is why colleges like Grove City College and Hillsdale College REFUSE to accept government aid. They don’t want the Feds interfering with the way they run their education.
Government, including our “illustrious” Federal one, is the extension of the citizens, not the other way around. I do not default to bending the knee in terms of public verses private sectors.
The student loan program was taken over by the government. Should students be prohibited from borrowing education money to attend those schools? It is a loan to the student, not the institution. By that reasoning, any organization will be liable to government regulation because somewhere government funds something that benefits the institution, e.g., roads, utilities, police and fire service.
