“This violates my first rule of sloganeering. Always bring in a 10 year old boy to read your slogan. If he laughs, start over.”
Wise advice, too often ignored. Another variant — ask yourself if Jon Stewart could find some way to smirk at it.

And even if they did, why should they acquiesce to the coarse pubescence manifested in the currently disgusting state of American pop culture?

Yes, for years they had a rule against interracial dating. Their scriptural basis for this rule want was related to the Old Testament proscriptions against having intimate relationships with the people of other tribes and nations. Extending these restrictions to prohibit Christian students from dating another Christian who happens to have a different skin color or nationality had a pretty questionable basis, especially given the New Testament teachings of Paul and the fact that King David was the grandson of the product of an "interracial" couple.
In practical terms, the reasoning for it was more of a cultural and social basis, and at the time there were some very practical reasons why interracial dating was often a bad idea. Our culture and society has changed so much since then that the major problems an interracial couple faced then are more of an exception than the norm now.

Wise advice, too often ignored. Another variant ask yourself if Jon Stewart could find some way to smirk at it.I heard of this as advice for public figures, called the Leno Rule: "Never do anything that, should Jay Leno hear about it, will cause him to mention you in his monologue."

don’t you have to know what “BJ” stands for other than the university name?

dont you have to know what BJ stands for other than the university name?There is no way they could have lived through the 1990s, and NOT know that BJ means "Bill Clinton".
