2019's Worst Colleges for Freedom of Speech

[MNomadic]

That’s absolutely insane that you can be expelled for being a gay student in America. It’s something we usually see happen in 3rd world countries. I don’t understand why anyone would want to attend such a disgusting university.

I believe schools should be able to do what they want with their own money; I just avoid them. But, University of the Cumberlands receives federal financial aid and millions from the State of Kentucky. The expulsion happened in 2006, but in 2016, University of the Cumberlands got a waiver that allows them to continue to discriminate against LGBTQ students and still receive federal financial aid. If you're not going to follow federal laws, then you shouldn't receive federal funds. There are gay people paying taxes that go to that school.

This is an interesting point. Schools(primary, secondary and post secondary) that are religious in nature sometimes receive federal money. This is something I will have to look more closely at.
