Supreme Court says Yeshiva University may exclude -- for now -- LGBTQ student group
The Supreme Court issued an order by Justice Sonia Sotomayor on Friday that allows Yeshiva University in New York to refuse to recognize an LGBTQ club for students.
The order does not carry the same weight as a final ruling, but may provide more time for justices to decide.is whether the Manhattan campus is a “public accommodation” and therefore subject to the New York City Human Rights Law, which forbids discrimination based on sexual orientation. But the university said it should not be forced “to put its stamp of approval on a club and activities that are inconsistent with the school’s Torah values.”“Without an immediate stay of the permanent injunction issued below, the nation’s leading Jewish university will be forced to give official recognition to a student organization in violation of its sincere religious beliefs and Torah values.
