No they don't. Thanksgiving break isn't the same as Fall break.

The rumor dates from at least 1992-3 (when I first heard it in seminary)

You've got to figure that with the hundreds of thousands who have attended BYU

The only thing I question is that, to be honest, it was/is common for BYU

Of course it's possible that it's true... even probable imo. When you have kids

But the rumor was anullment, not divorce . . .

It goes back much further than that.

Thanksgiving Week was no break?

Most schools have a fall break in October as well.
eddog

I don't think BYU has ever done that.

I was referring to the break between summer term and fall semester.
Mr Bassman
8/23/14 9:57am
I'm sure those two weeks are plenty enough to be a break.
Mr Bassman
8/23/14 9:58am
Most of the students are homeless during this period anyway.

This is another great provo urban legend. Is there any truth to it though?
OlanchoCoug
8/23/14 10:23am
It's false because it happened at Ricks
