The SPLC brief supports the OSU Students Alliance brief previously filed by the Alliance Defense Fund, a nonprofit legal-services organization representing the students. The brief was prepared with the assistance of SPLC Legal Fellows Laura Napoli and Adam Schulman." ]]> http://www.alliancealert.org/2010/10/20/student-press-law-center-joins-college-journalists-appeal-of-osu-newsrack-ban/feed/ 0 http://www.alliancealert.org/2010/06/29/supreme-court-decision-on-law-schools-anti-bias-policy-may-have-limited-impact/ http://www.alliancealert.org/2010/06/29/supreme-court-decision-on-law-schools-anti-bias-policy-may-have-limited-impact/#comments Tue, 29 Jun 2010 16:53:09 +0000 Admin http://www.alliancealert.org/?p=64473 The Chronicle of Higher Education: "The Alliance Defense Fund, which helped represent the Christian Legal Society members seeking recognition on campus, similarly predicted that Monday's decision would have limited impact because few other institutions have exactly the same policy. In a written statement, [Gregory S. Baylor], the group's senior legal counsel, said the Hastings policy requires the Christian Legal Society to allow atheists to lead Bible studies or the College Democrats to allow the election of Republican officers. 'We agree with Justice Alito in his dissent that the court should have rejected this as absurd,' Mr. Baylor said." | ADF News Release ]]> http://www.alliancealert.org/2010/06/29/supreme-court-decision-on-law-schools-anti-bias-policy-may-have-limited-impact/feed/ 0
