Wright State University Campus Bible Fellowship not required to abandon faith-based principles
DAYTON, Ohio — Officials at Wright State University have agreed to reverse their decision to deny recognition of a Christian student group after receiving letters and public exposure from both the Alliance Defense Fund Center for Academic Freedom and the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education. WSU officials told Campus Bible Fellowship, which has existed as a registered student organization at the university for more than 30 years, that in order to obtain recognition for the 2009-2010 school year, they would likely need to abandon a requirement that its voting members and officers abide by faith-based principles.
