AMU President Jim Towey says the school's board will discuss legal options Monday following a revision to the federal government's mandate on provision of free contraceptive services. "We subsidize these health plans, so the question is whether university resources are underwriting this," Mr. Towey told the Washington Post. "I still don't think President Obama gets it," he added. Many other prominent Catholics also expressed reservations.
