Melody Newsome, Breaking News Editor • September 1, 2023

Loyola and Tulane students joined forces to counterprotest an anti-LGBTQIA+ group outside Tulane’s campus on Freret street Friday afternoon around 1 p.m.

The group held signs that read “Homo sex is a sin” and “Jesus saves from Hell.”

Many students utilized a nearby bench to make signs to express their dissent.
