Academic fraud? That is hilarious. That school vaunted history of academics barely goes back 30 years, if that. Anne their contributions to the world of science, engineering, art, etc, are miniscule by comparison to Utah. The byu in Provostan was my safety school when I came out of HS. They were a trash school with second-rate professors until the late 80s/mid 90s, when they finally started raising the bar. And the academic excellence of the school is based on the quality of incoming students because the school is a stupid cheap place to send kids from out of state (MUCH cheaper than Utah and USU for out of state kids – it is 1/3 the cost in many cases, and is significantly cheaper than far better schools where the same kids could get admitted like UW/Cal/Stanford/UCLA/USC, Michigan, Duke, Notre Dame, etc).
Their school is named after a ruthless tyrant who had (by some reports) over a thousand Native Americans murdered, had wagon trains of former Mormon settlers harrassed/murdered when they tried to leave and go back east to the States, threatened to make Utah territory a slave state (and allowed slavery/owned slaves), milked every ounce of wealth out of the populace for his own benefit, and generally was a horrible person.
And even now that school suspends students who are victims of rape or sexual assault ‘because they deserved it’.
Seriously, f**k that guy and everybody who thinks like that.
