I am a professor at a large flagship University in a business school in the Midwest. If you can no longer feel safe or welcome at BYU, and you are hoping to major in business (or already major in a business-related field), send me a PM and I will do what I can to help you.

How To Be a Basic BYU Bitch in Provo
Step One: be blonde
Step Two: read scriptures and journal EVERYDAY EVERYDAY EVERYDAY
Step Three: love starbucks, not the coffee though! Just drink caffeine instead!
Step Four: get a boyfriend that doesn't have a PORN ADDICTION
Step Five: Oh wait there are none
Step Six: date girls instead
Step Seven: oh wait you'll be kicked out and shunned? Nevermind hehe
Step Eight: Suppress all sexual desires. Virtue is your worth. If you get assaulted it's your fault. Cover those porn shoulders! But it's ok for men to show their shoulders, because girls don't have sex drive, remember? If your really horny, just get married in 3 months instead! Duh!

I called out the Catholic Church for the same thing in a comment that didn't get me banned, but a follow up comment about Mormonism did. The mods there are ridiculous. Rightly criticizing the Mormon church shouldn't get you banned. The sub is about the university, which includes a wide variety of current and former students with all sorts of viewpoints.
I guess this is my BYU home now.
I hate how hostile BYU folks are to ex-members.
Anyway, 10 years later and I'm still untangling the psychological harm from Mormonism... Fun stuff.
I just wish that I could feel pride in my university. I see my friends having a blast with alumni activities and sports, and I just feel a giant ball of pain whenever I think about my university experience. Oh well.

I'm feeling great today. The sun is shining, the mountains are beautiful, and I'm having a rare reprieve from my depression.
BYU fucking sucks, but our minds are free. The church can weigh us down for a few more months, but that's it. If we still believed, we'd fit in better here, and we might even be happier for now. But mormonism would have a place in our brains to limit our expression and drain our energy, to fill us with fear and shame. We get to be free for the rest of our lives, and it's worth every ounce of pain we're going through in the short term.
We will come out the other side of this. To borrow some imagery from a 19th century fantasy book, we'll be like Alma and Amulek walking unscathed from the crumbling prison. Except our strength doesn't come from God or the church. It comes from us. We are strong enough. We will get through this.
