Jewish university suspends all student clubs after court orders approval of LGBT group
An Orthodox Jewish university has suspended all student club activities following the U.S. Supreme Court's reversal of a temporary order sparing the institution from having to approve the establishment of an on-campus LGBT organization while its case is adjudicated.
Yeshiva University told students in an email Friday that it would "hold off on all undergraduate club activities while it immediately takes steps to follow the roadmap provided by the U.S. Supreme Court to protect YU's religious freedom."
A spokesperson for Yeshiva University told The Christian Post in a Monday statement that the institution filed briefs on Friday, as instructed by the Supreme Court.
"We anticipate a quick conclusion in the courts and the start of clubs soon," the spokesperson wrote.
Katie Rosenfeld, the attorney representing YU Pride Alliance, called the university's suspension of all club activities a "shameful tactic" in a statement published by CNN.
The attorney argued that the Pride Alliance only seeks a "safe space" on campus.
