A Catholic student group at the University of Wisconsin-Madison will get $250,000 in student fees next year under an agreement that settles its religious discrimination lawsuit against the UW.
The UW Roman Catholic Foundation sued last year after the UW refused to recognize the group.
Under the agreement, the UW will award fees for the group's student activities ranging from prayer gatherings to speeches and classes in theology.
The agreement means the group will be one of the best-funded on the Madison campus next year.
