University Overrules Student Body Who Voted to Bring Chick-fil-A to Campus

Students at Rider University last spring supported opening a Chick-fil-A on campus, but this fall they were given a new survey with their first choice conspicuously absent.

Rider’s administrators had removed Chick-fil-A as an option after a "difficult assessment of competing interests," in which the universityfound the chicken restaurant was "widely perceived to be in opposition to the LGBTQ+ community." This charge stems from Chick-fil-A’s late founder S. Truett Cathy and his son, CEO Dan Cathy, supporting "the biblical definition of the family unit."

Rider’s president and vice president for student affairs wrote in a statement that it would violate "our values of inclusion" to allow a Chick-fil-A franchise to sell chicken on Rider’s campus.

"The choices in this situation, like in so many others, were imperfect," wrote Rider president Gregory G. Dell’Omo and VP for student affairs Leanna Fenneberg. "They challenged us to reflect on our values and consider what kind of community we want to provide for those who live and learn at Rider University. Ultimately, we decided to lean in the direction of creating a welcoming environment where differences can be appreciated and where each individual can expect to experience dignity and respect."

    Morons who talk out of both sides of their mouths. Chick fil-a is one of the most welcoming restaurants on the planet. Hypocrites at Rider don't appreciate the differences brought to the table by the Cathy family. Liberals always want it both ways. Exactly the reason we no longer support SU.

  7. Well Chick-fil-A doesn't need them anyway. Someone should see how much Rider supports all things muslim. I bet they support all muslim causes and everyone knows how the muslims truly feel about the LGBTQ+ community. Hypocrisy at its finest. The libs cannot see it how ridiculous they look.

  9. Northwest Woodsman: Can’t even getmamchicken sandwich without some butt hurt Marxist liberal democrats spoiling it for you. I wish people would stand up to this ridiculous nonsense. Somehow, I believe that there are more normal people than butt hurt liberals in this country and it is about time we did something about it. First thing would be to stop the indoctrination of our youth in the Marxist school,system and provide,them with some common sense and ability to reason.
