Presidents in Indiana Decry 'Religious Freedom' Law
Presidents of 3 universities in Indiana have publicly criticized Indiana's "Religious Freedom" law, which opponents of the law view as an avenue for discrimination among groups of people, mainly the LGBT community. Indiana U, Butler U, and DePauw U Presidents all made public statements that reinforced their university's commitment to anti-bias and nondiscrimination, as the law could have negative effects on views of higher education institutions. It will be interesting to see if any other universities follow suit, and how this law might affect higher education institutions in the state of Indiana. Full story here.
