BYU Students Hold “Bike for Beards” Protest
Published at | Updated at
PROVO, Utah (AP) – A group of BYU students is protesting the Mormon church-owned school’s ban on something its namesake once sported: a beard.
About 50 students biked, skateboarded or in-line skated their way from the Provo City Library to campus during the “Bike for Beards” protest on Friday night.
Protest organizer Shane Pittson says he finds the ban on facial hair other than mustaches outdated.
