I'm sure they objected to it on the basis of their Jesuit affiliation. It's hard for me to believe that GU only JUST began and LGBTQ outreach center when I began my MA there in '07 after a series of anti-gay incidents. While I respect the religious affiliation of GU and the Jesuit identity, I also feel like Georgetown uses that as an excuse to ignore problems on their campus rather than have an intellectual and rational debate about the role of tolerance in education (even a Catholic education).
