The Supreme Court has ruled that public universities may collect student activity fees even with students' objections to particular activities, so long as the groups they give money to will be chosen without regard to their views.

(A) Usage of "they" is not clear here, we do not know if "they" is referring to Pub. Universities, Students or Groups. Also, "will be" is the incorrect tense here as the supreme court's order has already been passed.
(B) "they" here is referring to "student activity fees" which makes it ill logical to say, "student activity fees" have objections.
(C) "they" here is referring to "student activity fees" which makes it ill logical to say, "student activity fees" have objections- "have to be" is redundant.
(D) Correct option. Even from students who object - more idiomatic. ‘Are’ is used here as it is the correct tense.
(E) The phrase “have an objection” is wordy for the object. This is not the correct option.
