At San Jose State University, students would probably only get a similar amount of money. But that, it is argued, is not the point. Rather, it is the principle of paying for organizations that you morally oppose. By supporting such a ruling, though, we are ignoring a lot of what college is about. I will gladly donate my couple of dollars to the Catholic Campus Ministry or any other like-minded organization, even though I probably disagree with many of their ideas.
College is about being exposed to new ideas.
For the rest of our lives we will be able to close our ears and ignore many of the ideas that we don't agree with. It is not too much to ask for the few years we spend in college that we permit everyone to be heard equally. Through this kind of exposure we might learn more about people who aren't exactly like us, and maybe we will be able to understand them better. But my biggest problem with this is the kind of precedent it will potentially set. It is not far-fetched to think that the next logical step to this would be allowing people to get refunds on such student services as the Transit Access Program or the Student Health Center.
