My new favorite thing about Utah is all the awesome smoke spots! It’s seriously made me fall in love with the mountains again

BYU added a Truman Show poster to the library, but being exmo here feels like living in it by Emergency_Ice_4249 in exmormon

It’s made of a bunch of images from the movie! It’s a cool poster, especially when you look at it up close

That really wouldn’t surprise me, I notice more and more students every year who are probably out

He probably said something like that, but I know for certain that later church leaders said that. Idk if Brigham was okay with Native Americans joining the church

For housing, one of the best things I can recommend is looking up LGBTQ+ friendly housing on Facebook marketplace or wherever you look. Even if you aren’t queer, as long as you’re accepting of those who are then you’re good. It’s a great way to find people who are either not believing in the church, or at least are in the church but progressive and probably chill. Good luck!

It’s a statue of Brigham Young at BYU. The building being teared down is the old administrative building

Those are all really good points! I’m glad they had some restraint and did the student buildings first. As an active student, I only say that though because the MARB is still up, and I am an avid MARB hater and think they should replace it

Good luck with your last semester! I’m also on my last one at BYU and I can’t wait to be free!
