Just wanted to give '71 another reason to complain about the Honor Code

One of the two writers acknowledged the “lapse in judgment,” and said she felt that the inclusion of a reference to the Church’s leadership handbook was sufficient. Note to Tribune editors: it wasn’t.

Oooh. Saucy! I like it!

Dealing with those who report sexual assault is a problem for all organizations, not just colleges. The Army spends a lot of money training their force to prevent sexual assault, and how to deal with it when it is reported. Even so, sometimes we struggle to get it right.

The DoD Inspector General just released their findings in a report that Brigadier General Charles Veit retaliated against Lieutenant Colonel Teresa James for reporting a sexual assault. Essentially he gave her a career killing evaluation because her report precipitated an investigation that showed he gave preferential treatment to her attacker, and even ignored a separate investigation that showed her attacker had:

berated, belittled, and engaged in acts of hostility, used gender epithets, physically assaulted three other service members, and may have treated female soldiers disparately.

It is a difficult phenomenon to arrest. However, why isn't the Church ever on the front end of finding solutions, instead at the back end? BYU compounds the problem with its HCO Nazis but that is a problem unique to BYU. For all that I care about BYU, it seems BYU is constantly behind the proverbial eight ball, being beset by mistakes from its mindless bureaucrats. Once upon a time the modular business structure of the LDS Church was a model of efficiency, but now the groupthink and requirements from everything to be decided by the top down seems to be impeding success.

This article ignores the fact the Church had 24 hours to get a comment. What did SLT do that was so unethical?!

Completely unfair characterization. I'd say just the opposite. BYU does a better job of protecting their students from sexual assault than most other universities.

I wonder if things at the SL Trib are going change when Huntsman takes over as the owner.

Exactly. To suggest otherwise is being willfully blind to the facts.

BYU doesn't necessarily do that, the LDS culture does. By abstaining from alcohol and discouraging pre-marital sex, the culture necessarily pre-empts the circumstances that tend to give rise to the opportunities for sexual assault. This puritanical approach reduces these incidents, not a novel approach to a new developing social problem.

However, why did Southern Virginia quickly adopt an amnesty program, whereas BYU needs a lengthy bureaucratic survey to modify its approach? Why is BYU not on the cutting edge of any social problem, or response?

People claim this is a nuanced problem. Really? You need to avoid the chilling affect that reporting sexual assault by not involving the HCO. And anything discovered during a report is out of bounds, general immunity, not specific immunity. The risk of BYU students filing false claims to escape the HCO investigation is minimal and the chilling affect is a far greater harm.

You seem to be lumping the Church and BYU together, and then separating them again as it suits you. And for all your railing on the HC, isn't enforcement of the "puritanical" standards a large factor in keeping BYU students safe?

Commie bastard.
