What Do You Think?
BYU officials announced yesterday that Brandon Davies, a star basketball player on the 3rd best team in the country had been suspended indefinitely and may even be kicked out of school. Why? He had sex with his girlfriend. Apparently this violated the school's policy for students to live a virtuous and chaste life. This may also be why 80% of all students at BYU are married. They want to have sex. All students entering the school know they have to abide by the code, but they also can be kicked out of school for drinking coffee or tea. It seems hard to equate drinking coffee and tea with having sex but apparently at BYU they do. I understand the reasons the administrators of the school have the policy but it also seems unrealistic to expect teenagers living alone and on their own to not have sex. It is also hard to stay up all night studying for exams drinking milk. So, what do you think? Was suspending the player the right thing to do?
