It's strange to consider what gets published as news sometimes...
Star Tribune (colloquially, Strib): Controversial group at University of Minnesota medical school in Duluth divides students
Alpha News, basically in response: UMD [Univ. of MN-Duluth] med student objects to ‘very existence’ of Catholic group on campus

Strib, first sentence:

A Catholic group for students at the University of Minnesota Medical School in Duluth that opposes gender-affirming care is fracturing the small, rural-focused program.

Alpha:

The Star Tribune recently published a story on the “divisive” and “controversial” group that is “fracturing” the Duluth medical program. The article quoted two students and noted that Interim Regional Campus Dean Kevin Diebel wasn’t aware of any complaints made about the group.

That detail is mentioned in the ninth paragraph.
Anyways, the Strib article eventually connects the Catholic group to a Southern Poverty Law Center-designated "hate organization" (American College of Pediatricians) and fearmongers for muh rural trans.
Alpha's report goes a bit off course in defending Catholicism in general when the Strib article pointed out #notallcatholicsyet.
