Speakout

Do you think that Hamline should be religiously affiliated?

Carmen Danz, Speakout

“They were originally so if they are going to be religiously affiliated, they need to be religiously affiliated. They can’t just say they are going to be when in reality, they aren’t. So to answer the question, yes, I think they should be.” – Whitney Gaffney, sophomore
“Yes, I do. We are the only United Methodist affiliated university in MN and that’s part of our history. The current situation with the United church gives me pause, but I still think the values line up overall.” – Jane Krentz, Director of McVay Youth Partnership
“No, because we are very open to everything. Educating ourselves on all religions would give us a better understanding so we can make everyone feel welcome.” – John Evans, junior
