Yesterday, a campus wide email was sent out about Soulforce's Equality Ride (link) is coming to our humble abode called Houghton. Soulforce is an organization founded by Mel White, a gay priest who has actually taken out parts of the Bible that he feels are unimportant and really do not have anything to do with our life today. (www.melwhite.org) They are coming to our school because and I quote, "your student guidelines maintain a policy that is unwelcoming to homosexual members of your student body, and creates a disparity between treatment of heterosexual and homosexual students.”
To say the least, we are trying to prepare for something we have no clue what is going to happen. So, stay tuned for updates in what's to come, and pray for the campus as we get ready.
