Students should be aware that Brigham Young University has made an important policy change that could affect future education and graduation. Please note the following as contained in the 2012—2013 undergraduate catalog: Students must select and declare a major by the time they have 60 earned BYU credit hours (excluding language exam credits). Once a student has 75 earned BYU credit hours (excluding language exam credits), they will not be allowed to change their major, unless special permission is granted. If you have questions regarding this policy change or would like further clarification, please contact the college advisement center:

Vocal Point's new music video was recently released and featured on the BYU homepage. The video shares a touching version of 'Danny Boy' from the male a capella group's new album. The video was released to advertise their concert this weekend at the Covey Center for the Arts this Friday and Saturday. Tiffany Solis, from BYU Records relates, 'The most beloved song of Gordon B. Hinckley, 'Danny Boy' was originally intended as a love song sung by a girl to her sweetheart, but it is now more often associated with brotherly affection between friends. When McKay Crockett collaborated with Keith McKay Evans for this arrangement, Keith viewed the lyrics in a different way: about a father struggling to share his feelings with his departing son. In the newly written final verse, the father contemplates that perhaps he will outlive his precious Danny Boy.' Watch and listen to this interpretation of 'Danny Boy' in the video below:
