Calling All Campuses
Last week, I laid into the Mormons and Brigham Young University for their codified bigotry. I also noted that the Mormon Church is but one villain in this drama, and that Brigham Young University is by no means the only campus where homophobia and abuse of LGBT students is…

Sanitized for your Protection
Sanitized For Your Protection There are miniature bottles of shampoo, lotions and miniature soap. The Bad towels, starched and scratchy, hang the same way everywhere in the country. Desktop note pads and tabletop advertisements of local interests, sights and historical tidbit’s that bore me still. Well-appointed rooms with marble…
