KSL reports that BYU has modified its policy on politics to better reinforce the neutrality of the Church. The report suggests that the change may be in response to the controversy from Vice-President Cheney’s commencement appearance.
“The policy now reads: ‘The essential functions of the university require strict institutional neutrality, integrity and independence regarding partisan activities, particularly because perceived partisanship is often interpreted as endorsement by the university’s affiliated sponsor, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.’”
