Court Ruling: UW Must Fund Catholic Student Group

MADISON, Wis. — A student group at UW Madison is promising to continue its fight against what it believes is religious discrimination.

A District Court ruled last week that the UW must allow funding for the Roman Catholic Foundation’s programs, even though the activities include prayer and worship.

The UW has refused to fund the programs because officials believe sponsoring the group violates the separation of church and state, reported WISC-TV.
