Wheaton College, a Christian liberal arts school of about 3,000, announced it is dropping student health insurance coverage in objection to the Obamacare contraception mandate.

The decision, announced July 10, will halt healthcare coverage Friday for the 2015-2016 school year for about a quarter of the undergraduate and graduate students. Faculty and staff are not affected.

the Christian liberal arts college announced to the campus community that it will no longer provide health coverage for roughly a quarter of its 3,000 undergraduate and graduate students. The decision won’t affect health care insurance for the school’s faculty and staff



Nothing worse than hypocrites hiding behind religious beliefs.  It is all about the money.  There is no way possible it could be about their religious beliuefs or else they would have to cut of the insurance for the faculty and staff also.

It's either hypocrisy or, unlike their students, they are required to provide insurance to their employees. I have no idea how anyone can equate this to the school being cheap. They have offered insurance in the past and would have continued to do so if the court had not said they must include contraceptive coverage. They are also setting aside money to help those that might be financially burdened by the decision. One can also assume they are losing a good deal of money due to decrease in current and future tuition fees.  

Once again I commend you on your use of the bold feature. Looks like you may have even manipulated the size. Good work.
