The Varsity has always been approved - until now. Need we wonder why?
That school should get its act together and re-write that senseless policy. Obviously, there are exemptions, such as the case mentioned. They should do as Ohio did.
Ohio State University rewrote its student organization registration guidelines to read, “A student organization formed to foster or affirm the sincerely held religious beliefs of its members may adopt eligibility criteria for its Student Officers that are consistent with those beliefs.”
Furthermore, here's where the problem lies: their policy is outdated!
He noted the school’s policy dates to 1972 and is mandated by state law.
1972! We've come a long way since then. There is more to consider now! Like this one....

Time for them to catch up to the 21st century, folks.
I think they should start using simple common sense. That's the simple solution to this.
Unless the Varsity had used false representation to attract would-be-candidates for leadership....then abide by its eligibility requirement.
After all I think it's safe to assume that all College Students understand what "CHRISTIAN" means. I hope they didn't think it referred to Slater - as in a fan club for Christian Slater. :lol:
I'm sure a homosexual-couple club will be up in arms if heterosexual couples demand to be let in, and have a heterosexual eligible for leadership!
Or a heterosexual woman demand to be eligible to participate in gay beauty pageants!
Or Christians be allowed to participate and speak in Atheist/Humanist Clubs....and be eligible to run for its leadership.
