I have mixed feelings about this. On one hand, I absolutely agree that sexual assault must be eliminated from BYU campus and that victims of sexual assault must be treated with love and respect. However, it is also true that some sexual assaults are, indeed, the result of failure of all parties involved to adhere to the honor code. To the students who think the honor code is "old fashioned" and "out of touch", I would remind them that there are literally thousands of people who would love to attend BYU and would be more than willing to adhere to the code. If you find the honor code too restrictive, I would respectfully suggest that you attend a different school where you would feel more comfortable and thereby create an opening for a student who genuinely wants to attend BYU and abide by the principles set forth in the honor code.
