University ordered to pay almost $2 million after students win religious freedom lawsuithttps://www.campusreform.org/article?id=18597A federal judge ordered the University of Iowa (UI) to pay $1.9 million in fees and damages after two student groups won a series of religious discrimination lawsuits against the university.
The Becket Fund, which represents Business Leaders in Christ, will receive $1.37 million while Intervarsity Christian Fellowship will get $533,000, Crux reports.
Eric Baxter, a senior VP and counsel at The Becket Fund, told Campus Reform targeting students of faith “comes at a price.”
"When university officials target students of faith, it comes at a price. The blatant discrimination against religious students at the University of Iowa was entirely preventable,” Baxter said.
I had not heard of Business Leaders in Christ, but I know IVCF has been around for decades. IVCF isn't fringy nutcakes, except to Christian Haters, of course.
