Summary
Lawsuit filed by ADF involves university policy allowing all non-religious student groups to require that their leaders and voting members agree with the groups’ beliefs but denies that same right to religious student groups.
The Ninth Circuit’s ruling against Alpha Delta Chi was overturned by the full Ninth Circuit in Fellowship of Christian Athletes v. San Jose Unified School District on September 13, 2023.
