A music executive who has donated millions of dollars to Belmont University says the school must change its policies toward gays.
Belmont has faced a torrent of criticism for the past week from gay rights organizations and student groups who support women's soccer coach Lisa Howe, who lost her job after revealing to her players that she and her lesbian partner were expecting a child.
Now, The Tennessean reports, Mike Curb of Curb Records has added his muscle to the fight, saying the formerly Baptist-affiliated school must decide whether it wants to be a university, or a church.
