This Christmas season, the Pro-Life Generation is celebrating the 697 Christian colleges and universities across the country who uphold the basic biblical principle that life begins at conception by not promoting Planned Parenthood or the abortion industry. Sadly, it’s not all yuletide and merriment: 70 other Christian schools are officially on this year’s Naughty List, having varying degrees of support for abortion or abortion vendors like Planned Parenthood easily found on their websites.

This information comes from a newly released report by the Demetree Institute for Pro-Life Advancement, which investigated all 767 colleges and universities affiliated with Christian churches in the United States throughout 2023. According to our findings, 76 — or one in ten Christian schools —maintained some type of relationship with Planned Parenthood and the abortion industry.

Considering that Planned Parenthood sells the most abortions compared with any other vendor and is proven to set up shop in college towns (with 87% of its locations within five miles or less of a college campus), it comes at no shock that the abortion giant has also crept its way into faith-based schools. What isa surprise, however? Post-Roe v. Wade, there is a growing number of Christianschool administrations, health centers, and professors willing to compromise biblical values by supporting or advertising for the abortion industry.

In fact, according to these new findings, the number of Christian schools supporting Planned Parenthood or abortion industry directly has increased by 10% since 2021.

We concluded our research in 2021 with only 69 remaining infracted schools (those found in some sort of pro-abortion relationship) but found as many as 76 infracted schools by 2023. This means that rather than celebrating the end of Roe’s tyranny, some Christian schools actually broke their silence on the issue in favor of abortion. 

Take Holy Cross College, a Jesuit Catholic college in Massachusetts, for instance. It was awarded an A+ grade in 2021; however, following the reversal of Roe, their Women and Gender Studies department used the school’s website to “condemn” the decision,  demonstrating their commitment to abortion over biblical values.
