But I think the question larryjf is if the State can force religious institutions to fit those quotas. See Geneva College v. State of PA concerning Geneva's right to make being a Christian a requirement for hiring and the right of Geneva to post job opportunities on a State-run job links website. The courts finally ruled that the State has no right to deny opportunity to companies who want to post job openings on a state-run website because of the colleges religious convictions.
