The bigger question, however, is this: can evangelical Christian colleges such as Wheaton (which has the reputation of being the "Evengelical Harvard," a reputation which they want to foster) seriously claim to be teaching philosophy and history, for instance, if they fire admitted believers who simply adhere to another faith-tradition?

I think it's odd that they think that they (apparently) can't be "distinctively evangelical Protestant" and have persons anywhere on the faculty (not in theology) who aren't evangelical Protestant.

Baylor thinks they're distinctively Southern Baptist and certainly has many non-Baptists on the faculty.

A mixed faculty is a bit like a mixed marriage.
