Christian Colleges Seek to Defend Title IX Religious Exemption
By
The Council of Christian Colleges and Universities filed a motion to intervene in a lawsuit that seeks to overturn a religious exemption to Title IX, the federal law that prohibits sex-based discrimination in education.
The lawsuit, filed in March by a group of LGBTQ+ current and former students at a variety of Christian institutions, argues that an exemption for religious colleges included in the Title IX statute is unconstitutional. It contends that the Department of Education is duty-bound to protect LGBTQ+ students at all federally funded colleges, including religious colleges, from discrimination.
