At Mormon-owned Brigham Young University, the school's honor code forbids same-sex relationships. Bisexual student Jillian Orr had to keep her feelings a secret when she was enrolled, but she wanted to honor her fellow LGBTQ+ students during the graduation ceremony. Her younger sister suggested lining her graduation coat with a rainbow flag. As she walked across the stage to accept her degree in psychology, she let her true colors shine as she flashed the crowd with the rainbow. She told CNN, "I wanted to do this to be honored, to be seen."
