What a bunch of bull. When people say "change the Honor Code" it simply means "let me wear a beard."

Let's have a quick look at this oppressive code:

Quote:
Be honest
Wow. Controversial.

Quote:
Obey the law and all campus policies
The nerve!

Quote:
Live a chaste and virtuous life
Inconsistent with church doctrine, no?

Quote:
Respect others
Horribly oppressive.

Quote:
Abstain from alcoholic beverages, tobacco, tea, coffee, and substance abuse
Who'd a thought a church school would require WoW adherence? So odd.

Quote:
Participate regularly in church services
A challenge for some of us, to be sure.

Quote:
Observe Dress and Grooming Standards
Dammit, I want my beard!

Quote:
Use clean language
Dammit, I just said dammit!

Quote:
Encourage others in their commitment to comply with the Honor Code
The infamous "rat out your brethren" clause.

Ashley Sanders is right. The Honor Code is an antiquated, oppressive, and unreasonable standard. It's time Mormon youth stand up for our right to cheat on tests, skip church, sleep around, drink beer, and engage in all around troglodytic behavior.

Who's with me?!
