Funding Pulled

(Fox News) - The Student Government Association at the University of Arizona last week rescinded its promise of more than $4,000 in funding for an annual Christian-themed concert, after changing its bylaws to prohibit donations to events with religious or political themes.

The Arizona Daily Star reports members of the student senate say they changed the rules in order to comply with state law. But one of the group's leaders could not specify which law was being cited and the university's legal counsel says there is no such law. And a First Amendment lawyer says what the students did actually breaks a law — the First Amendment.

And, while the students cut money for the Christian concert, they approved funding for an ad in the student newspaper sponsored by a gay rights group that lists names and job titles of students, faculty and staff who are homosexuals.
