I attended a Christian college 1969-73. It did not accept federal dollars so that it would not have to answer to the feds. When the government saw they lost control of schools like this they broaden the definition of accepting federal dollars to include the students accepting student government loans. They now had control. Liberty and schools like them have lost their freedom to enforce standards that would reflect the identity of the school. Catholic hospitals, because of federal dollars, will have to perform abortions. It all about a creeping federal control of our lives which under Obama is becoming a rampaging federal control.
I’m not sure that money is at the source of this. Your employer for example would be required to allow a group of Republican employees to hold meetings if the same employer allowed a Democrat group to meet. To do otherwise would legally be creating a hostile environment to the Republican employees, if not charges of outright coercion. Of course the easiest solution would be to simply not provide space or support for any political group.
