Oh yeah, it is all his fault, he’s been pope for a few weeks and he already caused this.

This is something that they need to take to a higher level.

[rusty schucklefurd]

Does this school have a “black student union” group? If so I’m sure white conservatives would be welcomed with open arms.

[illiac]

And why is that pertinent to this discussion?

[massgopguy]

The first objection listed is that we are “a men’s organization”.

[FatherofFive]

The new Pope's a Jesuit.

There still are few good ones. He actually got in trouble with his order for being really catholic.

[ladyjane]

Yes, it does have a black student union.

” The History of the Black Student Union:
Gonzaga University’s Black Student Union was chartered in 1979 in order to engage in projects which the membership considered to be in the interest of the Gonzaga campus and Spokane Community.”

Unbelievable - hopefully somebody will take them to court to either abolish all clubs or let the KoC into the campus.

who really gives a she it, why would a Catholic organization wish to bee recognized by a bunch of depraved liberal lunatics

[massgopguy]

The local KOC is having an argument over a building Gonzaga is putting up that affects their property.

This should never have become an issue, but I harken back to ND covering the crucifix when Zero showed up. Very disappointing, and it makes me furious that they are not fighting this nonsense.

[VeniVidiVici]

To celebrate diversity it is acceptable to be intolerant.

[nevergore]

Doesn’t that decision violate the right to free assembly and association clause?

Non-lawyer paging lawyer types!

[redgolum]

Isn't Gonzaga a Catholic school?

If so, then whats the problem? Or more to the point, why are they still a “Catholic” school?

[Salvation]

I guess it’s time for money to stop being given to Gonzaga.

Strange, because there is a beautiful, new chapel on the campus — I’ve been in it.

[Salvation]

Because of this one point, this whole thing may turn around.

[Starstruck]

..Dean of Students Kassi Kain.. Is that her stage name?

Sister named Kandi.

[SECURE AMERICA]

Let them turn down a muslim group.
Nah, they would except them with open arms........ or they would end up losing their arms!

[illiac]

and....

[illiac]

And who should stop giving them money?

[EDINVA]

Parents should at least educate themselves enough to know that they are not sending their kid to a truly “Catholic” college.
