Some Notre Dame Students and Faculty Outraged by Proposed Campus Chick-fil-A

Notre Dame students and faculty outraged by proposed campus Chick-fil-A, claim fast food option isn’t inclusive enough

A group of students and faculty at an elite Catholic university say they don’t want Chick-fil-A to open a restaurant on their Indiana campus because of the restaurant chain’s frequent donations to Christian groups.

Roughly 180 University of Notre Dame students and faculty have signed an open letter calling on the school’s Campus Dining division to nix the proposed new shop.

The movement gained steam after two undergrad students wrote a letter to the editor to the Observer, a college newspaper, titled "Keep Chick-fil-A away," Campus Reform reported Monday.

The letter writers, Tilly Keeven-Glascock and Joey Jegier, accused Chick-fil-A of donating millions to "queerphobic groups," which they said include the nonprofit Fellowship of Christian Athletes. And they objected to owner Dan Cathy’s personal donations to organizations like the National Christian Charitable Foundation, which they alleged "funds hate groups."

Fox News reported in 2019 that Chick-fil-A said it would no longer donate to the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and the Salvation Army because of similar criticisms and had cut off other groups as early as 2012.

Those Notre Dame signators need to get a life... preferably one that praises Jesus and is resplendent with prayerful contrition.

I guess the CEO of Chick Fil A telling us to polish the shoes of BLM wasn’t good enough for the Maoists. It was good enough to keep me away from ever eating there again.

I had to read that twice.
That line is worthy of the Bee.

We live in a time of Cancel Culture.

Notre Dame is a Catholic university. The leadership there should strike back and “cancel” everyone who opposes Chick-Fil-A on the basis of their Christian donations. Toss 1000 people to the curb if you have to. Just make it clear that the conversation isn’t going to happen and won’t be tolerated. Cancel Culture needs to go both ways.

Of course, the leadership at Notre Dame are probably just garden variety communists and atheists so ...

Sooner or later we’ll see a college that has the balls to kick these types of students out.

No, wait, never mind.

I hope everybody is ready.

Notre Dame should be mostly concerned with Pope Marx and football stadium seating spacing. [oh, and kneeling pads for the fooseball players.]

Universities are run by effeminate wimps.

The university president should call them all to a meeting. Two sentences would end it. “You guys don’t like our university? You really should go to another.”

Old-time liberal: “I don’t like Chick-fil-A. So I won’t eat there.”
Today’s liberal: “I don’t like Chick-fil-A. So no one must eat there.”

What that modern liberal doesn’t understand is that his behavior is fascist in nature. Or maybe he does know, and just doesn’t care.

What does that say about your mental state that you’re ‘outraged’ about a fast food restaurant?

Wait? It's not like these signators work at or attend a religious school? I thought that I read somewhere where this campus switched to satanic norms?

Parents are fools to send their kids to these indoctrination camps.

You don’t have to go there if you don’t want to.

Jeeze, Louise, these kids are dumb.
