Question

You are the HR manager for Appalachian Valley College, a fully-accredited private Baptist college located in western Virginia. While your college does not offer ministerial degrees, it seeks to present its education with a uniquely Christian world view. All faculty members are required to present and subscribe to religious and social views not in conflict with the college's religious charter, which includes the belief that marriage should be reserved for one man and one woman only.

Dr. Jane Madison, a philosophy teacher for fourteen years, announces that she is gay and teaches in the classroom that since same-sex marriage has been legalized nationwide, it should be considered religiously and socially acceptable by the college. As HR manager, you are required to support the religious charter of the school, and Dr. Madison is directed by your office to abandon desist from teaching her views on LGBT issues or face termination. Dr. Madison threatens to sue the college for violation of her Title VII rights, and continues to teach as she sees fit. As HR manager, what should you do? What is the likelihood of success of Dr. Madison's threatened litigation?
