Comment on Michigan Conference takes substantial action in LSU conflict by Tony Rigden.

I praise the Michigan Conference for taking some sort of stand on this issue but ask the question why can they not simply close the college if those running it will not conform to church beliefs. I know with modern labour laws that sacking them could be difficult. However, I wonder why this could not be got around by just closing it?

Looking at the bigger picture, I am sure this sort of thing has been pending for some time since the decision in 1931 (or about) to go for accreditation with Catholic/wordly universities.
