Simpson has been affiliated with Methodism since its founding in 1860, but the United Methodist Church's decision two years ago to reaffirm its ban on LGBTQ clergy and marriages has put the college in conflict with Simpson's efforts to build a more diverse, equitable and inclusive community. College Chaplain Mara Bailey stops by for a chat about the college's proposed new affiliation with the Reconciling Ministries Network, which will help the college support LGBTQ students, faculty and staff.
