About time some normality in the court system has happened. Good to see real moral traditions up held.

An ironic situation came to mind.

A friend in Korea, a Stake President and Seminary director for the country. He sent both a son and a daughter to BYU a few years ago and was a little surprised that the could not share the apartment he had arranged for them.

BobP,

What's your point? Are you knocking BYU for not mixing genders?

This is a great victory. The attack on a university having single sex dorms is bizarre. At least as of 5 years ago the University of Michigan had such, and I think they still do. Then there are fraternities and sororities, which are in most cases single sex. This was the most ludicrous suit ever.

BobP,

They can share the same apartment as long as other, non-family people don't live with them as well. In other words, it'd have to be just the two of them in the apartment, unless they had other brother/sisters/cousins, etc.
