Calvin College - Discrimination Policy

Discrimination Policy

Calvin College exerts its right under the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment to discriminate on the basis of religious criteria in its hiring, personnel practices and admissions. Among other things, this means that faculty members are required to be church members, that "sexual relations outside of marriage are proscribed," and that "sexual activity belongs exclusively within the covenant of (heterosexual) marriage." The policy proscribing same-sex activity by personnel has led to Calvin College's employment advertisements being flagged as discriminatory by the American Philosophical Association.

Famous quotes containing the word policy:

    There is absolutely no evidence—developmental or otherwise—to support separating twins in school as a general policy. . . . The best policy seems to be no policy at all, which means that each year, you and your children need to decide what will work best for you.
    Pamela Patrick Novotny (20th century)
