Challenges to Two Student Organizations
OUTSIDE CHALLENGES to the legitimacy of the club’s existence.
- “How can a club like this exist on a CATHOLIC CAMPUS?”
- “There is no place on a Catholic Campus for a group for GLBT persons.”
Fides et Ratio
Existence of such a group felt by some to challenge the Institution’s legitimacy…
- “The school must not be doing its job if students feel the need for such a group.”
(Perceived threat to the institutional legitimacy from outside that then created defensive posturing within.)
