In an inspring turn the evening before today’s walkout and teach-in, the Student Government Association has passed a resolution against Chick-fil-A’s presence on campus. The fried chicken conglomerate, as many of us learned this fall, has funneled millions of dollars to organizations opposing gay marriage and LGBT equality.
The SGA resolution doesn’t impel the administration or Sodexo to take action, but it does send a strong message of unity, a message of support for LGBT students, workers, and faculty, and a reminder that corporate interests do not define Emory.
