//.she was one semester away from graduation. //
Then she should have been smart and waited to ‘get married’
I was in midst of program at state university when I married my dear husband. The department head made it clear he did not approve of women getting married while in the program. So... I hid it until I graduated. Consequences, he would not recommend me to an architectural or design firm for a position. This truly did hurt me as it was 1979... Midst of the Carter malaise. Should not have happened, all others achieved immediate employment. Our graduating class was only ten people. Even the firm I had interned with...architect told me he could not hire me because I was married and would be getting preggers any day! I told him I was not newly married, two years married and we were not planning to start having kids in the near term.
Funny.. Out of desperation I took a sales job with an agency that called on architects and met this same idiot when he came to one of their cocktail events. Even funnier...he was engaged to one of my coworkers.... He was embarrassed to say the least. Crazy world! This was in a public university...now they wish to control what a private university can do? Screw the Govt. University...they didn’t build that and they didn’t pay for it...the taxpayers do. PRIVATE citizens PAY for the Christian Universities...don’t like the rules? Leave!
