NEW YORK, NEW YORK - AUGUST 30: People walk by the campus of Yeshiva University in New York City on August 30, 2022 in New York City. Yeshiva University on Monday filed an emergency request with the Supreme Court asking it to block a judgeâ€™s order that requires the university to recognize an LGBTQ+ student group. The religious and Jewish university stated in court papers that â€œYeshiva cannot comply with that order because doing so would violate its sincere religious beliefs about how to form its undergraduate students in Torah values."
