We are talking about kids who want to grow facial hair, wear immodest clothing on campus, etc. The assumption that most LDS and Poly kids are interested in BYU is flawed...especially in the last 15 years. In my part of Utah, it's not cool to like BYU...most kids are all about USU or the Yewts...because they know that getting to BYU is nigh on impossible.
20 years ago it was different. Today I really admire Kalani and Ty for taking on the challenge.
