They have dropped the ban on inter-racial dating when they realized it was one of those type "old fashioned" rules that kept people from hearing the true message of the university.
It was a ban that was put into effect many years ago, and had been such a "non-issue" with the school that it was basically non existant anyway.
By the way .. the ban had nothing to do with any race being an abomination in God's eyes. While I was there we had students of mixed races - all races.. as students there we all managed to get along.. :)
Unfortunately, Hyles Anderson College--I think--still has such a ban in place.
PS: But, you do understand the difference between race and ethnicity, right?
