Defund InterVarsity Christian Fellowship Today
September 3As a Christian and a Tufts student, I am calling for the immediate de-funding of the so-called Tufts Christian Fellowship (TCF), a chapter of InterVarsity Christian Fellowship/USA (IVCF). IVCF continues to promote anti-gay hate speech while acting as the oversight advisory for TCF's funding, taken from the Student Activities Fee. This is unacceptable.
