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:
“The horror of Gandhi’s murder lies not in the political motives behind it or in its consequences for Indian policy or for the future of non-violence; the horror lies simply in the fact that any man could look into the face of this extraordinary person and deliberately pull a trigger.”
—Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
