Tufts U. Removes TCF as a Campus Organization; TCF Requires Students Agree to Christian Beliefs

A Christian student group at Tufts University in Medford, Massachusetts has confirmed it is appealing the school's decision to drop them from its list of official campus organizations, the Christian Broadcast Network website reports today (November 3, 2012).

Tufts Christian Fellowship (TCF) is a chapter of Inter Varsity Christian Fellowship. TCF was told it violated the university's non-discrimination policy by requiring its students to agree to a belief statement about "basic biblical truths of Christianity."

Inter Varsity said it is fighting the decision. Unless the move is reversed, TCF will be blocked from using the Tufts name in its title, scheduling events on campus, or receiving student funding.

Some observers said the move is just one more example of Christian beliefs being subjugated to homosexual demands and a rising climate of political correctness.
