North Point Church in Binghamton, New York, was prohibited from meeting on the campus of Broome Community College. Administrators cited a policy prohibiting religious groups from renting its buildings, yet the college allowed other community groups access to the facilities.
Daniel Blomberg, litigation counsel for the Alliance Defense Fund, said after his group stepped in, the college agreed to reverse the policy.
"Christians have the exact same constitutional rights as everybody else," he said. "We are pleased that Broome Community College now recognizes the constitutional right of churches and other religious groups to meet in public meeting facilities on the same terms as other groups."
