BYU's calendar boy
The BYU graduate who cashed in on Mormon missionary sex appeal will have to do without his diploma. Chad Hardy, if you remember, was excommunicated last fall between finishing his course work and getting his BYU diploma because he published a calendar featuring sexy Mormon missionaries. Being x'ed, not surprisingly, is a violation of BYU's honor code.
Hardy received a letter from BYU's dean of students explaining his appeal was being denied because the calendar depicts missionaries in an "inappropriate light."
That Hardy is planning a follow-up on the missionary calendar and another on Mormon housewives, Hot Mormon Muffins: A Taste of Motherhood, couldn't have helped his case.
Your continued involvement with these calendars as well as apparent plans for future calendars of similar content only demonstrate to me your ongoing disregard for those principles of the honor code.

BYU continue to be jerks. Can you have any less humor? He earned and paid for his degree.
An entire Church and educational system based on intimidation and threat for being "x'ed" and exiled from family and their multi-level marketing version of heaven.
"I rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints."
He should just transfer to one of the many quality colleges that offer degree completion progams and move past YBU.
Cautionary tale for high school grads, go to the "U" and have an educational experience where you are treated like an adult and no one will arbitrarily yank you degree for being seen at Starbucks, an "R" movie, or with Black or Gay people.
Just curious. What happened to the RM's who posed for the calender? Were the Ex'd, banished into oblivion, or were they required to up their tithing to 20% in order to buy their way back into the kingdom?
