Students for Life at Colorado State University v. Mosher

Summary

Students for Life at Colorado State University Fort Collins was denied funding under a “Diversity Grant” program for a speaker after the University determined that the chosen speakers content did not appear to be “entirely unbiased as it addresses the topic of abortion.” ADF filed a lawsuit and the group subsequently reached a settlement with the University, which agreed to eliminate the Diversity Grant program, modify the Student Activity Fee Policy to include viewpoint neutral criteria, and eliminate the prohibition on funding religious activity.
