I am a Westminster Graduate Class of 1976. I trust my College to do a good job in remodeling the building, while keeping its historic appearance.

It is always true that some young alcohol consumers can get out of hand, I was one during my days at Westminster. As an adult, I have learned to drink responsibly. Westminster is a great school with a fantastic facility who are there because they love to teach.

Westminster is the only school in Utah that has a liquor license. As a church school they are exempt from the law that says that you can't sell alcohol near a school. That is because of a supreme court decision made during probation exempting churches from the 18th amendment. They said that the 1st amendment trumpeted the 18th Amendment.

Westminster also has its own LDS Ward where the minority LDS students can worship as a group that have the common experience of living on a Protestant Campus in Utah.

Westminster's mascot is the Griffin. The Griffin was a symbol used by the early Christians to represent Jesus Crist. The Griffin represents flesh and divinity. God the Son

Nice comments Stephen. However, did you mean "Prohibition" in your third paragraph?

Yes I did mean Prohibition and also in the last paragraph I meant Jesus Christ. I am not the best typist in the world. I do better long hand.
