Aw dude...Think with your big head not with your little head ;)

Oops

When you're in Rome, you do as the Romans do...
When you're in Provo, you do as the Mormons do

Yeah they're pretty up front about their honor code when you go there.  Alcohol isn't permitted either...and the same goes for the staff.
 
 

BYU is a private institution, and he knew the rules before he began attending there.  If he did not hold the same beliefs and did not intend on following the rules, he should have picked a different college.  It's not discrimination, it's their right to exercise their religious freedom, and uphold the values they believe in.
 
I know that this is of a religious nature, but I had to speak up.  I defer all moderation of this thread to another mod.

What do you do when your in Washington ?

I'd like to see how they prove such a thing? Hearsay? What a crock. Hope the dumbass didn't directly admit to it :P

they should get sued for that..... (not the main stories thing)

even private organizations cannot legally discriminate against gender orientation of attraction

it is wrong and unjust imho

 
You have clearly been misinformed. BYU is a private institution who can chose to refuse business to anyone they please. A company can fire someone for having a relationship with a coworker, it works exactly the same way. Or for example, my dads work will not hire family members of employees, but they are still an EOE.
 
And right now private institutions can discriminate against gender orientation. One notable example would be the Boy Scouts.
 
While you cant do 1960s style segregation, business are definitely within the law in cases like these.

Depends, if you mean DC, You do as the village idiot, if you mean the state, you do as the Washingtonians do.

it doesnt matter what anyone thinks....he signed a contract to abide by those rules. so there going by the rules. i couldnt agree more.

He broke rules he agreed to adhere to before he went to the school.  Now he gets punished.  I might not agree with the rules......but I'm not going there.

lmao. very nice

You cant knock someone down for having a good time. Jeez. Especially if the chick wasn't even attending there. That's like me saying, yerbuddy you can't buy EVGA parts anymore, if you slept with your wife before she became your wife. You just cannot do that.

Silliest post I've read in years.  You obviously don't have a clue what you are talking about.  Your analogy is so far from the reality of the situation it's not even worth commenting on; yet I do so anyway. 
 
In this particular case one CAN knock this guy for having a good time; specifically, BYU as a private institution.  Davies broke the code that he agreed to in order to become a student at BYU.  It appears to me you don't see it as an ethical dilemma simply because of a lack of personal ethics and understanding of such.
