Really good points. But probably more effective to say you will shave, accept

the calling, and then grow back a well groomed beard to protest the silly tradition from a position of leadership. I see a lot of bishopric members with beards these days. You see it enough and the culture changes. So be why not be seen and accept the call?

I think younger men grow poor beards and BYU is better without undergrad beards

I agree, BYU is special. I disagree that not allowing beards makes BYU special.

No beards at BYU is not what makes it special.
