Drury University is smack into the middle of Roy Blunt, conservative Republican land, so you would not expect such a well-known university — at least well know in the state of Missouri — to extend health insurance benefits and other services to same-sex couples.  Hell, Missouri State University’s teachers couldn’t even get the university’s president to extend their non-discrimination policy to cover sexual preference.  Something like this is unheard of in this area and I have no doubt people will protest the decision and threaten to keep their kids out of the school because, of course, the fact the university will now cover same-sex couples would mean they’re trying to push a homosexual agenda on poor, defenseless, impressionable students.
