A Win for Free Speech at Georgia Tech

We read:

"Georgia Tech announced on Tuesday that it has agreed to remove a policy banning hate speech on campus to end a federal lawsuit filed by two students...

The lawsuit alleged that the school policy discriminates against Christian and Jewish students by barring them from speaking out against homosexuality and other issues.

Ruth Malhotra, a conservative Christian, one of the students represented by the ADF, said she had her free speech "stifled, hindered and threatened" by the policy. The other student, Orit Sklar is president of Hillel, the Jewish student group"

Good to hear that the courageous Ruth Malhotra has finally prevailed.
