Sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen.

Does Chick fil A have a lease or agreement with the student government association or with the university?

I’m thinking the association may not have standing to nullify any lease or agreement.

Any attorneys out there?

So in the name of “Tolerating All Viewpoints”, they banned an organization for having a different viewpoint.

Got it.

Here’s an important lesson for those student government kids: the vote didn’t kick chik fil a off campus at all, the student government doesn’t have that authority, and it doesn’t hold the contracts for food services.

If I were the school’s administration, I’d issue a concise statement for the student newspaper explaining the choice they are really trying to make, and promise to raise student fees in the next year by exactly what it will cost the college to break the contract (including applicable legal fees, and noting that the full costs will be borne in a single year so as to most directly reflect the current student body’s wishes) After the student body had a chance to mull that over for a week or so, then ask the student government to vote again.

I have a nephew at Elon. It is quite the liberal bastion. I’m sure that both he and his mother support this move. His brother, probably not quite so much - he just got back from Afghanistan and now knows better.

No worries.

This time next year, this same clueless “student government” will be biotching that there are no “affordable choices” on campus.

And the beat goes on, and the beat goes on....

“Hey, dudes! I’m makin’ a CFA run. Takin’ orders.”

Later:

“OK, that’ll be 250 spicy chicken sandwiches. Gimme the cash and I’m on the road!”

How does Student Council have any say in contracts with vendors?

Note to Elon University: Do not even THINK of asking me for a donation.

So the fast-food chain’s president is against perversion and the remedy is to ban the fast food chain. It’s amazing how sick, twisted and totally turned around the country’s values have become since I was a kid.

I wonder if the STUDENT GUB'MINT ASSC has the final say about the business contracts and vendors /providers allowed on campus??...

...Or is this just the SGA going thru the motions of elementary liberalism... ??

I work with an Elon grad who is one of the most air-headed people I’ve ever know.

I’d love to hear a lawyers perspective on the most severe path CFA can take against the council and the university.

If the propagandists on the student government manage to get the school’s policy changed, the Chick-fil-A folks ought to sue the sue for all its worth. A blatant case of stifling free speech.

George Orwell’s “1984” and thought police! Chick-fil-A (CfA) has no history of denial of service or employment to any GLBT group or person on the basis of their orientation.

Instead, the owner of CfA is a devout Christian with an accepted and common view of Christian mores. He lives his principals by closing the entire chain on Sundays (”Day of Rest”) and supporting traditional marriage.

The LGBT pressure groups use this media-driven topic to try to punish a company for the dislike they have for its owner. to me this meets the definition of a “Secondary Boycott”; A group’s refusal to work for, purchase from, or handle the products of a business with which the group has no dispute. In many areas this is considered an illegal action by trade unions but not by individuals. Where this action ends up will become the unfortunate province of the lawyers and courts.
