Re: BYU being sued for "online" curriculum not being what was paid for

For better or worse, I believe this pandemic will change not only how we do business, but how universities will operate. Going forward, I believe that distance delivered courses will become a significant offering at traditionally brick and mortar universities. With that said, not all online program...

Re: Nobody wants to operate City Creek

Sounds like Taubman is on the brink, and there's no information in the article necessarily tying their financial health to City Creek. Simon was going to purchase Taubman and its holdings, but has apparently backed out. So now we're with a failing company without anyone coming to the rescue. If Taub...

Following the Heartland vs. Mesoamerica debate is about as entertaining as watching flat earthers argue about whether the earth is in a contained dome or whether it's an infinite flat plane. Which is to say that taken alone, the actual arguments on both side are so absurd so as to make it not worth ...

Re: MTC will be an Empty Sea thanks to Brother Coronavirus

If missionaries can be effectively trained via video whilst remaining at home, then all that money spent on MTC’s has been an unnecessary waste of widows mite (except for the construction companies that “won” the tendering processes). You mean, a better use would have been investing in the Ensign P...
