College of the Ozarks is guided by a biblical worldview which understands that human sexuality is a gift from God and that sex assigned at birth is a person’s God-given, objective gender. These sincerely held beliefs influence its dormitory policies, which prohibit male students from living in female residence halls—and vice versa. However, a new policy pushed forward by President Biden threatens to punish religious schools, including College of the Ozarks, if they operate their student housing consistently with a biblical worldview. |
