If the issue is "This Christian school has the right to discriminate" then that's a different question. But let's not do some mental hoop jumping to act like it's not discrimination.

 It's a private university, so it should be able to ask for Christian conduct. According to Christian religious belief, gay marriages are not genuine marriages.

Discrimination would look more like this:

heterosexuals can have sex; homosexuals must abstain from sex.

However, the rule is that everyone must practice abstinence unless they are married. 

 You're cognitive dissonance just made my head blow up.

"Christians believe homosexual marriage isn't genuine, so they can never get married. Let's include in our code of conduct the privileges marriage grants that can never be achieved by homosexuals."

THAT IS THE DEFINITION OF DISCRIMINATION. Literally. You could put that in a dictionary as an example. 

Listen. I get it. you don't like gays, you don't think they should be allowed to marry, you want to be able to discriminate against them, and if those Canucks get to discriminate against gays you're happy for them. 

At least that dude in Oklahoma admits he wants to stone gays. 

If you're for a system where people in a group by virtue of their power get additional rights and privileges... why keep lying and saying you aren't for that?
