A University of Iowa student group that promotes Christian beliefs has won a second court ruling that said UI acted unlawfully in deregistering religious groups.
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit Judge Jonathan Kobes said in a ruling released Friday that what the university did was clearly unconstitutional and treated religious groups differently under the school s Human Rights Policy while giving exemptions to and ignoring other groups that violated the policy with missions he said he presumes UI supported. The ruling also leaves open the possibility of at least three defendants being held liable for damages.
The decision upheld a 2019 court case that also found that UI faith groups had the right to choose their leadership based on the individuals religious beliefs.
The appeals court said Friday that the university engaged in “viewpoint discrimination” by selectively enforcing its policy requiring all clubs to offer equal opportunity and access regardless of classifications including race, religion, national origin, age, gender, sexual orientation or gender identity.
The university exempts sororities, fraternities and some sports clubs from its policy prohibiting sex discrimination and allows some groups to require members of specific racial groups, the appeals court said. It even allowed one group, LoveWorks, to require its members to sign a “gay-affirming statement of Christian faith” while disqualifying groups that required members to affirm different religious statements of faith, the court said.
