The Vicissitudes of Organizational Life on Campus

In Campus Collisions, Christianity Today tells the story of the recent troubles Christian organizations have had on campuses.

The lead paragraphs: THE HARVARD UNDERGRADUATE COUNCIL was working its way through a night of routine business last November when sophomore Jason Lurie, an officer of the Harvard Secular Society and a member of the council, dropped his bombshell. Did the Undergraduate Council realize, he asked, that it was approving grants to openly discriminatory organizations?

The organizations were the more than 50-year-old Harvard-Radcliffe Christian Fellowship (HRCF) and the much newer Harvard Asian Baptist Student Koinonia (ABSK). Clauses in their constitutions specified that their leadersthough not their membersmust affirm an evangelical Christian statement of faith.

Really well-written article by a former InterVarsity staffer.
