many parties with lds and non-lds and there are some non-lds who get invited and just roll their eyes cuz it's a party with the lame kids and there are some who have other things they would rather do. Who cares. They don't have to be friends with me and vice versa. It's not cuz any of us are hard to deal with it's just not what they are looking for at that time. There are many instances in life where media, neighbors, etc stereotype groups because of specific events in there own life. I would hope the big 12 is professional enough to leave their personal experiences as such and not use those to justify a bad decision, whether they chose BYU or not.
