I am a BYU alumn, and I am an exmo. When combined, these two simple pieces of information cause me endless grief. Obviously I have to put it on my resume when applying for jobs, and where you went to college is a natural topic of conversation. How do you other exmo BYU grads handle this? I feel I am judged negatively by nevermos because they think I'm a religious fanatic, but I also feel I am judged negatively my TBMs who know I'm a BYU grad but obviously don't live their "standards." I don't like to discuss my religious affiliation period, past or present, if I can help it. But being a BYU grad makes that damn near impossible sometimes. I'd like to hear how others handle this.
