UVU: It's Day 1 15,000 herald school's new identity

But I don't think this is UVU trying to say "We're not BYU."
Everyone needs to go to a university. Therefore, every educational institution, however useful, must necessarily become a university eventually.
Look at Oxford: it went from being a vocational polytechnic to a full university, and it has done a world of good.
I see your point. My degree is in hotel management, which is why I chose UVU over Oxford (as most people do). I could not have learned to manage a hotel without studying it at a university. I can't imagine how people succeeded at managing hotels before universities offered degrees in the subject.
I would advise all universities everywhere to develop a degree in everything, and urge employers not to hire anybody for anything unless they have a degree from a fully-accredited university.
Right you are. Right you are.
For instance: if I needed some gardeneing done around my house, I would only hire someone who has a degree in gardening from an accredited university.
If I required a Monte Cristo sandwich, I would turn only to those with a degree certifying they have studied Monte Cristo preparation at a university.
Someday I will have my wish. Until then, who will garden for me? Or make me a sandwich?
UVU, I plead with you: expand your list of majors! Full program leading to a degree in every human activity, please!
Surely you're not qualified for anything unless you have a doctorate in it.
I've run my hotel for 14 years, but I'm going back to graduate school, because I need a doctorate to learn my trade.
There were over 10K people there. Why would a DesNews photographer choose these five horrible looking people?
I long for the day that the Church pulls the funding for the Deseret News.
I also love how the folks at BYU think that the only reason anyone would go to another school is that they couldn't get accepted at BYU. I got accepted to BYU but went elsewhere because I didn't feel that I had to be forced to live my religion.
