My brother just finished a stint as a bishop at BYU. It is not the policy now.

Umm ... of course not. Bishop's suggest self reporting and/or ask permission ...

Not all bishops follow this guideline

As a group, bishops are really, really good men. But they're not perfect.

Agreed. The only reason I bring that up is I wish the HCO acted more like a

Agreed. I've done internal investigations for a large MNC for the last three

Anytime I hear Carrie Jenkins say something, I assume the opposite is true.

I have a friend who had a bad bishop experience at BYU

I am assuming that he requested the weekly letters

Yeah, she moved back with her parents for the summer

Medute

Two sides to every story...just sayin. One side is talking the other one can't

Iman23

I agree with you 100%. I am only hearing one side

Medute

Yeah, that's good to keep in mind

Sometimes it isn't

Yup, sometimes it isn't. But sometimes people say things to bishops that

Why did you feel the need to make this point on this particular story?

The whole threat of being kicked out of school for moral transgression always

That's a change, used to be the opposite. Bishops were required to share with

DapperDan

How could the "HCO" require anything of bishops? The HCO has zero authority

Bostonblue

5/27/16 6:42am

The HCO didn't require it, the Church did

DapperDan

5/27/16 6:52am

You are so full of it.

Bostonblue

5/27/16 6:53am

Sorry, but that used to be the policy. Your belief doesn't alter the past.

DapperDan

5/27/16 6:55am

Dapper, you seem to have an axe to grind when it comes to the church. Did

DD is one of the most active LDS guys on CB.

That's hilarious if true.

Bahahahaha!

You have defended the faith. All is well again.

SoCalCoug

5/27/16 7:55am

Even if he DID have an axe to grind, why would you assume it was because....

BearsandBulls

I didn't assume that. I just asked a question and was trying to rib him.

Bostonblue

Fair enough.

When I was at BYU my bishops said that it was required.

RSLCoug

5/27/16 7:00am

That's only because your bishop didn't like you.

Bostonblue

5/27/16 7:04am

It was the policy, and it was announced over the pulpit week one of classes.

RSLCoug

This outlines the change from honor code to code of conduct

Florwood

Looking at my post history, the change was during the Crowton years.

DapperDan

Sorry, but IMO, there's far too much of a culture that fosters punitive

Entirely agree. The way the HC is implemented it creates a culture of pharisees.
