A Christian student group is suing the University of Iowa for discrimination after they were booted off campus for requiring student leaders to embrace Christian religious beliefs -- including a clause on sexual morality. The university stripped The Business Leaders in Christ of their status on campus after a member claimed he was denied a leadership position for being openly gay. As a de-registered student group, BLinC no longer receives funding or access to university facilities enjoyed by the other 500 student groups. “This is 2017, not 1984,” BLinC student president, Jacob Estell, said. “We hope that this serves as a reminder to universities everywhere that they cannot discriminate against student groups just because they don’t like their beliefs.”
