Four Christian female soccer players are suing Western Michigan University for rejecting their claims of religious exemption to the school’s mandate that all student athletes be vaccinated by Aug. 31.

The university’s stated policy is, if the women do not get vaccinated by the set date, they would be kicked off the soccer team.
