"The Honor Code Office will handle questions that arise on a case by case basis. For example, since dating means different things to different people, the Honor Code Office will work with students individually."
In speaking with Honor Code Office Director Kevin Utt this afternoon, we've learned that there may have been some miscommunication as to what the Honor Code changes mean. Even though we have removed the more prescriptive language, the principles of the Honor Code remain the same.
In response to KSL.com's request for comment on students' social media posts, Carri Jenkins, a BYU spokeswoman, said, "as we have explained this afternoon, there may have been some miscommunication as to what the Honor Code changes mean. We have clarified that the principles of the Honor Code remain the same. BYU Honor Code administrators have met with students throughout the day and welcome the opportunity to further discuss the updated Honor Code."
