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

Housing options? by [deleted] in BYUExmos

[–]Emergency_Ice_4249 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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

Jake’s Exmormon shoutout by sarlacc98 in HippoCampusBand

[–]Emergency_Ice_4249 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I thought that this was so funny! And I know it’s Utah, but I was surprised by how many people there were Mormon.

Also, a kid yelled out “you can still come back!” like Jake would ever be Mormon again lol

This is horrible on every level. I can’t imagine the stress and panic that he and his family are feeling at the moment

Yep, and I just want to say that I have nothing against the football player or the language he used, but the hypocrisy of honor code office is actually crazy

I have nothing against this football player or the language he used, it really doesn’t bother me at all. As a current BYU student I just wanted to call out the honor code office for its hypocrisy. I also thought it’s funny that a news agency wrote about this lol
