Oklahoma Wesleyan raked in $12.6 million in federal student loans and grants in 2013-14. In other words, your tax money is helping students attend a college that not only discriminates against legally married gay students, but also forbids students from dancing.
Idk if it counts as the point of the article, but it does seem wrong that any amount of tax money ends up funding a discriminating institution such as this. 12.6 million is just one school, I wonder how much of our money goes towards religious "education" in total.
- dudul 11y agoOur tax money is helping students get an education. These are loans, students can take loans to attend any school they want. If they decide to take a loan to attend a religious school it's their choice, what makes it less legitimate than liberal arts or STEM? Plus, this has nothing to do with the day-care controversy.
- splawn 11y agoOur tax money is helping students get an education. Don't you mean some students get an education? They openly discriminate. As far as the quality of the "education" goes. I will tentatively give you liberal arts, why not. However with STEM it seems way less legitimate. How many times have we had to stop the evangelical brand of "Science" from getting into public schools? I agree with you that the article didn't really have much to do with the daycare thing, but the whole tax funded religion thing did make me pause.
