U. of S. Carolina: CLS challenges student funding system

Jackie Alexander’s report in The Gamecock begins:

A Christian legal group has filed a complaint against the university in federal district court, alleging that the student organization funding system violates the First Amendment. The Christian Legal Society and the USC School of Law Chapter filed the complaint on Feb. 28, attorney Casey Mattox said. Mattox said the current funding practices do not allow religious or political student organizations to receive student activity fees. “It essentially leaves religious and political student organizations out of the funding process,” Mattox said.
