A university students group is filing an anti-discrimination lawsuit against the universty... they say are being discriminated against because to be an official student group they have to sign a statement that they do not discriminate.

umm.. so they are calling discrimination in they are not being allowed to discriminate?

:id:

Student group sues U over membership rule (http://www.daily.umn.edu/articles/2003/10/27/7149)


So if discrimination is allowed by the constitution, then why can't the university discriminate against them?

This private group is of course free to discriminate as much as it wants. The issue is whether it is entitled to student funds and administrative grants that subsidize its discriminatory practices.

“Our lawyer will take this all the way to the Supreme Court if he has to,” Harpel said. As long as you keep paying him, I suppose.
