Faculty members at the University of Kansas are trying to get Chick-fil-A kicked off the campus for being a “bastion of bigotry” or something:

FOX NEWS – A few Kansas University faculty members are not fans of allowing Chick-fil-A to be served on campus because they believe the chain violates “safety and inclusion”. The faculty council, filled with “extreme frustration,” wants America’s favorite restaurant removed from campus for being a “bastion of bigotry” after KU administrators relocated a Chick-fil-A from a basement to “prime real estate” on campus to the Memorial Union. But worse yet, to the council, is the “Chick-fil-A Coin Toss” at the start of the Jayhawks’ football home games. “The culture of Chick-fil-A fosters hate and discrimination on multiple levels,” the Sexuality & Gender Diversity Faculty and Staff Council wrote in a two-page letter, accusing university leaders of being “more concerned about money and corporate sponsorship than the physical, emotional, and mental well being of marginalized and LGBTQ people.” The faculty group added: “The arrival of Chick-fil-A in this building is insulting, counterproductive and unacceptable.”







Liberals are so predictable and lame. Chick-fil-A doesn’t discriminate. They aren’t bigots. But because their owner gave to pro-marriage groups, they must be destroyed.

But fortunately, it doesn’t look like that’s going to happen any time soon:

Katie Batza, an associate professor of women and gender studies, told the Kansas City Star that hundreds “will boycott or protest” but lamented that the request was “falling on deaf ears.” Interim Provost Carl Lejuez sent an email to faculty and staff, however. “Moving forward, I believe it is important to have thoughtful discussion and deliberation when we enter into contracts. In the future, we will do so in a manner that is transparent and informed by our commitment to affirm diversity and to be a welcoming and inclusive campus,” the email said, according to the University Daily Kansas.

I’m not crazy about the message from the interim provost, but it doesn’t sound like he’s gonna pursue trying to get Chick-fil-A kicked off campus. And that’s the most important thing.
