If the Texas A&M student senate has its way, the university's Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgendered Resource Center could soon find itself lacking funds. The senate last night passed the Religious Funding Exemption Bill, which allows students to opt out of paying student fees that fund university services they disagree with on religious grounds, reports the Eagle. Up until 24 hours before the final vote, the measure had been called the GLBT Funding Opt Out Bill, but backers broadened it and took out specific references to GLBT services.
One opponent of the bill called it "a facade to deprive GLBT students of resources to create a safe environment," but the bill's co-author insisted the measure doesn't single anyone out. "If you think this is pointing someone out, it is a fabrication in your head that you have created on your own," he said. Students, most of them opposed to the bill, crowded the senate chamber and overflowed into the hallway during the emotional three-hour debate, which ended in a 35-28 vote. The student body president must now decide whether to sign or veto the bill; if he signs it, it will be forwarded to the university president and CFO, the system chancellor, and the regents.
I’m still amazed that a pervert group is even allowed a university-sanctioned place at the table at A&M.
The GLBT club?
Why did they leave off the Q?
Why don’t these mentally ill students go to ut, Austin, where they run the place, instead of irritating normal students at A & M?
They can just be people like everyone else ,they have to be Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgendered,it’s a mental Disease
Why did they leave off the Q?
I may have to smite them for that!
I give solely to St. Jude's Hospital now. Danny Thomas was a saint.
Give to Hillsdale.
Well, someone has to represent the Yell Leaders and the band.
Good for the Aggies and just the way it should be.
All A&M students should be able to select which student groups their money goes to and which groups should not get their money.

You a tea sip?
Universities should not fund anything that promotes Vice and sodomy is always a vice—as is mutilating your body.
Justice has to be primary at any public university, using public money-—to promote Justice-—which is a Virtue-—can never promote evil destructive behaviors. 100 years ago when are laws were Constitutional....there could never exist such irrational “clubs”.
Science proves not only are unnatural lifestyles , well, unnatural, but they are destructive to the design of the body and costly to society and destroys civility because it prmotes habituation of using the human body as an object for lust or mutilation.
Our laws are based on Natural Law Theory and God’s Laws-—the Supreme Law of the Land, and universities are designed for the truth—not promoting irrational, Marxist lies that there is no difference between male and female, etc.
Nope.
awesome idea: Give money to the groups based on how many join them.
Why on earth are poofters getting money anyway? They are free to poke around in feces all they want and it is free.
So just an A$$HOLE then?
Sure isn’t UT.
