Is it vandalism that offends you, or the opposition to LGBT Pride week? I think it is lame to vandalize a sign. However, I also think it is lame of the University to officially sponsor (I’m making that assumption by the inclusion of their logo) something that is morally offensive to many of their students and many of the people in the community. Wouldn’t official silence be better in this case when coming from a government sponsored school?
Actually, that was a confused BYU student that was responsible for the vandalism — He saw “Pride” and thought that he should ridicule my alma mater for committing one of the seven deadly sins.
He had no idea that it had any kind of homosexual implications, just religious.

Bradley,
I am referring to the vandalism, but i am more than happy to address the issue of silence versus making a statement in a later post.
