Baylor’s New LGBTQ Resolution: A ‘Great Surrender’ or a ‘First Step’?

May 19, 2021 by Staff

(ChurchLeaders) Baylor University’s (BU) Board of Regents has passed a resolution saying that a “new, chartered student group” could be a way to provide effective support for LGBTQ students, who currently rely on the unchartered LGBTQ group, Gamma Alpha Upsilon (GAY). But even though the university also reaffirmed a traditional view of sexuality, some church leaders see BU’s decision as a sign that it is surrendering to the culture.

“Baylor is committed to providing a loving and caring community for all students because it is part and parcel of the University’s mission,” said BU’s Board of Regents in their “Resolution on a Caring Community,” issued on May 14, 2021. “As a Board of Regents, we recognize that Baylor’s LGBTQ students continue to seek care, connections, and community on our campus and a sense of belonging within the Baylor Family. As an important and faithful expression of our Christian mission, we desire to establish trust with our LGBTQ students so that, among other things, they might seek out the resources provided by Baylor.”
