Campus Pride review of them.
They are on the worst list of Campus Pride. I made sure that all of the links are saved at the Internet Archive. I include here links to the reports that Campus Pride quotes.

Some excerpts from their report.
Arlington Baptist University has qualified for the Worst List because it holds an exemption to Title IX in order to discriminate against its students on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity while still receiving federal funds.
October 2021 - Faculty Handbook states that:
"We believe that God wonderfully and immutably creates each person as male or female. These two distinct, complementary genders together reflect the image and nature of God. (Gen 1:26-27.) Rejection of one’s biological sex is a rejection of the image of God within that person. We believe that the term “marriage” has only one meaning: the uniting of one male as born at birth and one female as born at birth in a single, exclusive union, as delineated in Scripture. (Gen 2:18-25.) We believe that God intends sexual intimacy to occur only between a man and a woman who are married to each other. (1 Cor 6:18; 7:2-5; Heb 13:4.)"
"We believe that any form of sexual immorality (including adultery, fornication, homosexual behavior, bisexual conduct, bestiality, incest, and use of pornography) is sinful and offensive to God. (Matt 15:18-20; 1 Cor 6:9-10.) We believe that in order to preserve the function and integrity of Arlington Baptist University as an institution proclaiming biblical truth, and in order to provide a biblical role model to the college’s students and its community, it is imperative that all persons employed by Arlington Baptist University in any capacity, or who serve as volunteers, agree to and abide by this Statement on Marriage, Gender, and Sexuality. (Matt 5:16; Phil 2:14-16; 1 Thess 5:22.)"
February 2022 - Student Handbook states that:
"The Bible also forbids such activities as gossip, gluttony, drunkenness, stealing, dishonesty, murder, profanity, occult involvement, adultery, premarital sex, and homosexual behavior."
"Students are not allowed to maintain same-sex romantic relationships."
2021-2022 student handbook the 2023-2024 version have the same thing. As follows:

BIBLICAL ABSOLUTES By biblical absolutes, ABU means those unchanging scriptural truths about God, His creation, and eternal truths that He has established. Because they are rooted in His character and law, these truths are universal, unchanged by time, circumstances, culture, or human interpretation.
Included in the Bible are various commands and requirements about moral living. Because we desire that the life of Christ be manifested in our university community, it is expected that every direct command of God for the believer will be obeyed. To love other Christians, yield to the leadership of the Holy Spirit, obey the Word of God, personally trust the Lord, and do good to others are examples of some of the positive commands of Scripture (Gal. 5:16-23; Eph. 5:18-21; Col. 3:5-17; 1 Thes. 5:12-22).
The Bible also forbids such activities as gossip, gluttony, drunkenness, stealing, dishonesty, murder, profanity, occult involvement, adultery, premarital sex, and homosexual behavior. In addition, attitudes such as thanklessness, pride, lust, hatred, jealousy, and rebelliousness are equally displeasing to God.
These biblical principles are to govern our lives in and away from the ABC community. These precepts from the Word of God help us to manifest the life of Christ in our conduct and attitudes, expressing joy and purpose in living (John 10:10).
