Christian school suing UC over college credits

A Christian high school’s lawsuit against the University of California is escalating the culture war over the role of religion in public education. The Calvary Chapel Christian School of Murrieta, Calif., with 1,300 students, is suing UC for not giving credits for some courses with a ââ?¬Å?Christian viewpointââ?¬Â when students apply for university admission. The lawsuit is about theological content in ââ?¬Å?every major area in high school except for mathematics,ââ?¬Â says Wendell Bird, a lawyer for Calvary Chapel.
