he Supreme Court has
agreed to hear a case that
could pit Jewish groups
against some of their usu-

to prevent legislation mandating
prayer in the public schools.
The justices decided to hear a
Virginia case involving the ques-

schools can deny subsidies to stu-
dent religious publications while
funding similar non-religious
publications.
A lower court ruled that the
University of Virginia was right
by refusing to provide funding for
a magazine published by a Chris-

ination against religion and reli-
gious groups.
It was complicated by the fact
that the university had provided
funding to Jewish and Muslim
groups for cultural programming..
The Anti-Defamation League
plans to file a brief supporting the
lower court decision.
"We believe the university is
right in denying funds to an
overtly religious group," said
Michael Lieberman, the group's
Washington counsel. "People ar-
gue that this is discrimination
against religion, that religious
speech is treated worse than oth-
er forms of speech. Our response
is that religious speech is differ-
ent."
Jewish activists say that giv-
ing state money to groups pro-
moting sectarian views has the
effect of promoting those views.
