The ruling on the Resident Assistant Bible study controversy was passed yesterday by the Wisconsin State Legislature, Representative Rob Kreibich, R-Eau Claire, said.
The ruling will be adopted by the Board of Regents and will allow RAs to conduct Bible studies in their dorm rooms, or anywhere else on campus, as long as they are voluntary, he said.
"RAs are students too, and they shouldn't have to give up their Constitutional rights," Kreibich said.
He said he is pleased that there will now be consistency for this issue throughout the UW System.
The Board of Regents will make the final decision on March 10.
