By Joanna Brooks

…de, we sounded a note of caution here at RD about the “dark side” of honor code enforcement. After all, the honor code had been created during the 1960s in an effort by ultra-conservative BYU President Ernest Wilkinson to root out liberals, and honor code enforcement (including anonymous referrals) had been used to bait and harrass feminist, liberal, and gay students, shut down campus free speech, and compromise the privacy of pastoral counseling…

Gillamoos is Germany, ladies and gentlemen.” Kreuzberg is a multicultural, artsy, Left-leaning district of Berlin, whose supposed degeneracy Merz juxtaposes with the wholesome homeyness and patriotism of White, rural Bavarian Gillamoos.
