UW-Superior Looks Forward To Policy Solution (WPR)

(SUPERIOR) The scrap between a Christian student group and the University of Wisconsin may be over, after a change of wording in a policy passed Friday by the Board of Regents. Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship was rejected as a campus organization by a student government committee at UW-Superior last semester. The committee contended that since the Fellowship required its leaders to be Christian, that it discriminated against non-Christians. Inter-Varsity sued, and the Board of Regents re-wrote the policy. It still bans discrimination on the basis of religion and other things, but adds wording that gives student groups flexibility.
