I'm sorry, but I must rant about this - Shorter University

I try not to get political and stuff on this blog, but I just think this is wrong.  It's not the fact that they have issue with these practices, it's the fact that they are FORCING employees to agree with them.  And will punish them if they violate it.  I'm sorry, but that is taking away a person's agency is that is just plain wrong.  Especially if this wasn't made clear at the start of their employment.  Please join me in fighting back against this offensive policy.



Shorter University, in Rome, GA , has announced it will require all faculty and staff to disclose their sexual preferences by signing a lifestyle pledge in which they will promise to not condone premarital sex, adultery, or homosexuality. Among other things in the lifestyle pledge, faculty and staff will also no longer be allowed to drink where students could be present, within 6 hours of any college event, or in the general public period. Refusal to sign or violation of these terms will result in disciplinary action, including possible termination.


So I signed a petition to Shorter University, President and Board of Trustees, which says:
"Shorter University, in Rome, GA , has announced it will require all faculty and staff to disclose their sexual preferences by signing a lifestyle pledge in which they will promise to not condone premarital sex, adultery, or homosexuality. Stop Shorter University from requiring faculty and staff to sign a lifestyle pledge."
