Yeshiva University Will Restart Clubs Without Recognizing LGBTQ Organization

Yeshiva University plans to soon restart clubs after reaching an agreement with a group that wants it to recognize a student LGBTQ organization, the university’s lawyers said Thursday.  The university, which is historically affiliated with Orthodox Judaism, last week suspended undergraduate clubs rather than recognize a Yeshiva University Pride Alliance. Now the university and Pride Alliance have agreed the trial court’s order should be stayed, or put on hold, while appeals are heard — potentially all the way up to the U.S. Supreme Court.
