I mean, would you really be surprised?

Maybe someone should complain about the mustache

James Halpert

I’d rather we complained about the losing.

It wouldn't be even remotely surprising.

Probably is, and is a big reason I hate the honor code. Lame

I don't blame the HC, I blame students who take it upon themselves to enforce it

WhiteKnight

I blame both. Probably not the idiotic people who complain and "turn in" others

This stuff happens all the time at BYU. For athletes, Cheer, Cougarettes, BYUSA etc. Some people have to complain.

Where does it mention reporting?

No, but still many seem to read "turn others in for disobedience" into the HC.

Good find! Still, it never says it's required to report. Just that you can.

This I agree with. I actually like the HC, but I don't like HC watchdogs

way to perpetuate one of the biggest falsehoods on CB. Bravo.

How long do dresses have to be?

To the knees on men and thighs on women.

I suppose I don't really know. We were obviously in disagreement with that dress nazi.

My friends BiL, a USU fan, used to call the HC office all of the time.

Eddie

8/14/18 4:13pm

Your friend's BIL sounds like an immature idiot, which I guess is redundant since you said he was a USU fan.

I've got some great friends who are USU fans.

Yep. But...the HC facilitates this behavior. Too bad.
