Georgia Grad Student Sues University, Saying She Was Told to Change Christian Beliefs -- Everyday Christian News | Everyday Christian

An Augusta State University graduate student filed a lawsuit against the university Wednesday, because she says professors told her to change her religious beliefs to remain in her counseling program. According to the lawsuit filed by the Alliance Defense Fund, Jennifer Keeton, 24, has voiced her Christian beliefs inside and outside the classroom on homosexuality and other biblical teachings. ASU faculty has ordered her to undergo a remediation plan, which would include diversity sensitivity workshops, or she will be expelled from the counseling program, she says. Keeton plans to become a school counselor, and says she refuses to change her religious beliefs.
