Why this petition matters

Started by Taylor Huckaby

Louisiana State University, home of the beloved Tigers, has long supported its students with a commitment to all-- whether that means gay or straight, religious or nonreligious, white or black.  

However, an investigation has revealed LSU has a secret policy allowing student organizations to ostracize and expel their peers based on nothing more than the fact they are gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender.  This exception applies not only fringe religious groups, but mainstream fraternities and clubs as well.

Even more troubling, the university has agreed to allow Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal to host an on-campus, politically-motivated prayer rally in January which distributes materials blaming recent tornadoes and hurricanes on LGBT people.

Tell LSU to honor its commitment to LGBT students by enforcing its own nondiscrimination policies.  Tell LSU that gay people don't cause hurricanes, and it shouldn't play host to people who believe they do.
