It is a historical fact that BYU would be "capable of any violent act against apostates, gays, anybody threatening," except they are "constrained by our larger civic virtue?"

SU is turning into the guy who runs around saying crazy stuff, but then says "FACT" at the end and thinks it becomes a fact. Fact.

If SU would just preface his hyperbole about BYU with "is the intellectual equivalent of" I could even agree with some of it.

He never made it past his second year before being, ah, apprehended. The first time, anyway.

Default They should just let him go.

Why make even more of a story out of this guy's antics than it already is?

This kind of reminds me of Mr. Crimson: Say something really extreme, and have fun watching people go nuts. Please tell me you are not doing that. It's really beneath you, SU.

Default If he earned it, award him the

degree. How difficult of a decision is that? From what i understand, even non-members can get a degree from BYU.

Why does BYU do this nutty of a thing......about every 3-5 years?

Plus the calendar isn't even obscene......not even close. I'm sure some in the honor code office have been inside a Victoria's Secret.
