New Jersey A2952 excuses students from certain class requirements in public higher education if they conflict with their conscience or beliefs.

New Jersey A2952 allows students in public institutions of higher education to be excused from parts of health, family life, or sexual education classes if they conflict with their conscience or sincerely held moral or religious beliefs. Students must submit a signed statement to the institution or appropriate school official. The bill ensures no penalties for credit or graduation will result from such an exemption. This provision mirrors existing law for public elementary and secondary schools.
