EFY Season
Posted in Funnyon Jul 27, 2006
You know it is EFY season at BYU when you start reading about EFY incidents in the Police Beat column of the Daily Universe. For example, the recent Police Beat included these two incidents:
July 18: A student reported to police that she was receiving excessive and annoying calls and text messages to her cell phone by four unknown individuals. Police contacted the individuals, whom happened to be EFY students, and questioned them. Upon investigation it appears the individuals got the students number by accident and had been trying to contact another EFY participant.
So in other words, all four individuals were trying to call and annoy another EFY participant, but they got the wrong number by mistake.
July 18: Officers were called to the central building of Heritage Halls to attend a meeting with EFY participants about the dangers of shooting people with air soft guns.
I “wonder” why on earth the EFY participants were having a meeting about the dangers of shooting people. Perhaps they were completely unarmed and theologically interested?

Ah, the police beat: abundant source of entertaining reading.. Some of my recent favs:
July 12: A female student contacted police after being asked personal questions by a male student on Brigham’s Square. The questions alarmed the female, but police determined the questions were not in violation of any laws, but were “more in depth” than most people are used to when they first meet another.
July 10: Police were called after solicitors were found outside the ASB speaking about casting out devils. They were referred to the dean of student life to gain permission to be allowed to promote their cause.
June 29: Police were called after a man was reported to be praying to the statue of Joseph Smith in the atrium of the Joseph Smith Building. The man was gone when police arrived.
…and my personal favorite:
July 6: A female EFY participant told one of her counselors that a male had touched her. EFY counselors stayed with the girl until police arrived. The alleged male turned out to be a building supervisor doing security checks throughout the building. Police determined that no crime was committed because he had made no contact with the female EFY participant; he only touched the couch she was on.

Ok, this isn’t about any EFY incident, but it is still funny:
July 31: A parking officer reported an open container of alcohol in a vehicle near the Harris Fine Arts Center. Upon investigation, police determined the container in question was in fact an empty bottle of maple syrup.
