Your story makes me think about Seattle Pacific University, also a denomination affiliated school. Which denomination, I can't recall off the top of my head, but the school had quite a progressive reputation until fairly recently.

The faculty and student body had been generally progressive for quite a long time until just a few years ago when adjunct nursing professor applied for a tenured position at the urging of his department chair.

He didn't get the job. In fact, he lost his adjunct contract and was escorted off campus. Because he was married to a man.

Oh, the brouhaha that ensued!

The faculty were appalled, the student body were up in arms. There were protests, faculty senate votes of no confidence, and long student strikes. The students' primary grievance was that they hadn't signed up for an oppressive Evangelical educational experience. The faculty aired the same concerns, many loudly proclaiming they had been lied to in the hiring process.

None of it made any difference. SPU's board were apparently determined to move the school in a conservative direction, and they had/have the full legal authority to do so.

Now, the student body is said to be changing considerably as SPU recruits more Evangelical types. Meaning, I should be clear, deeply superstitious, intolerant, nasty students. The kind of disgusting religious people who are just fine with escorting a professor off campus because he's in love with and married to another man.

I know there are people in this word more cruel and evil than Evangelical Christians, but in the United States few groups can compete with Evangelicals for sheer nastiness.

They are in general so cruel, so arrogant, so judgmental, and so non-thinking. Awful people.

I'm sorry you had to put up with their kind of bull, and I'm more sorry your queer students had to. Thanks for sharing this story!
