The event's newsworthiness grew because of the one wild card the university couldn't completely control — five of its students joined the march and were arrested.
"BYU does not like the media attention this brings," said one of the marchers, gay BYU student Emil Pohlig.
It is possible the students who participated in the Soulforce demonstration will be subject to a review by the Honor Code Office.
"We're looking into it," Jenkins said Wednesday.
BYU's Honor Code prohibits any implicit advocacy of the gay lifestyle. The LDS Church, which owns and operates BYU, teaches that God reserved sex to be between a married man and woman.
