Scottish Student Body to Vote on Pure Course

The Scottish National Union of Students will vote tomorrow on whether to stop a Christian course on relationships from taking place on university and college campuses.

At Saturday's Annual Meeting of the Scottish NUS in Glasgow, a Private Members Motion will call on delegates to pass a resolution banning the Pure course on the basis that it is homophobic.

The course, run by Christian Unions, is based on the orthodox Christian teachings concerning marriage, and teaches the importance of fidelity in relationships. It has been run on campuses throughout Scotland over the past 18 months.
