College student and street preacher Kombe Sefelino was suspended from the County College of Morris (CCM) in Randolph, New Jersey, for quoting the Bible and condemning homosexuality as a sin.

But after he filed a federal lawsuit in March citing his First Amendment right to free speech, he is now allowed back on campus. The college sent his attorney a letter on March 31 saying it would let Sefelino on campus and allow him to exercise all his First Amendment rights.
