At North Shore Community College, ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵAPP¹ÙÍø became concerned about the threat to freedom of conscience posed by NSCC's job announcement requiring "Appreciation of multiculturalism" for a full-time faculty member in the school's English Department. This requirement imposed a political litmus test on job candidates and forced a faculty member to maintain a fundamental viewpoint with which he or she might not have agreed. After ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵAPP¹ÙÍø wrote NSCC President Wayne Burton about his college's violation of freedom of conscience, NSCC agreed to keep this requirement out of all present and future job announcements.
