Georgetown Gives Catholic Club Reprieve

Share this article

The bad news is that a Catholic club had to retain attorneys in order to function at a Catholic University. The good news: They won. “The Student Activities Commission was right to continue to recognize us as a student organization in light of the fact that we hold views consistent with Georgetown’s own Catholic identity,”Love Saxa President Amelia Irvine stated. “We hope that the outcome of this situation means that any and all other student groups at Georgetown which hold to beliefs consistent with Georgetown’s founding values will likewise be protected from unwarranted demands that they be dissolved.”
