Keep it to the knees, please!

Posters about modesty and grooming standards for students at BYU (oops, I think I might have killed their server)

Oh dear.

A reader named Jenny sent me a link to this Flickr photo which then led to some bad memories and a little bit of digging, and that's when I found the website for the BYU Student Honor Association. Some of these posters are so condescending, so patronizing, that you'll have a hard time believing they are real, particularly the one featuring Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. When I was at BYU I would have loved to have cartoon turtles call me "dude" and remind me that "piercings aren't acceptable, bro!" Would have brought me closer to Jesus.
