Student expelled from University of Cumberlands for being gay
Ok, let's assume that is the school's right to do so...
But then the Kentucky State Senate President David Williams visited and presented a symbolic $10 million check today to the University of the Cumberlands.
Should a state being funding discrimination of BGLT students?
When Jason Johnson enrolled at the University of the Cumberlands in 2004, he says he didn't worry about being kicked out for being gay.
After all, the school's code of conduct only barred "lewd and indecent conduct."
But Johnson, now a sophomore, said yesterday he has been expelled from the Baptist-affiliated college under a new sexual conduct policy that forbids engaging in or promoting homosexuality.
Administrators confronted him last week about his page on MySpace.com, on which he discussed his sexual orientation and boyfriend, he said.
