Abilene Christian University encourages students not to apply at Hooters
Abilene Christian University is urging students not to apply for a job at a new Hooters location that is just weeks away from opening.
According to local Abilene new station KTXS, the director of public and media relations for the Texas university told them that the campus has asked students to avoid working for the establishment.
"We have asked students to consider both what Hooters represents, " the article said, "and whether that is something they really want to support in terms of both their faith and the value this business model places on women."
ACU's media director also mentioned that, according to the handbook, students are "challenged" to make decisions that glorify God, and that the school could review each person who they felt did not uphold that standard.
The Hooters is set to open Jan. 15 and the company is looking to fill several positions before that date.
