It has been four days since Easter Sunday and President Kevin J. Worthen has reported, with sadness, that the Easter eggs he hid have still not been found. “I understand it’s a stressful time being the end of the semester and all, but I expected at least a few students to participate in the festivities,” commented the disappointed President Worthen.
Worthen reportedly filled a “solid few handfuls” of easter eggs with candy and scripture verses before hiding them around campus. The Alternate Universe investigated this claim but was unable to find any of the eggs, although the BYU Office of the President insists that they were hidden.
We reached out to Sister Worthen for insight on this development since Kevin- sorry President Worthen remained too distraught to continue the interview. “He did hide the eggs very well,” Sister Worthen explained. “He thought that these are college students, and they should be able to stand a bit of a challenge. Look at our youth today, so bright and intelligent! It is very sad that no one participated in his little hunt, however, he was so excited about it.”
Despite this setback, President Worthen does not seem to have given up on spreading Easter joy throughout the student body. Plans for next year include a program to exchange located eggs for a free scoop of Graham Canyon ice cream, and possibly requiring students to find at least one egg in order to receive their ecclesiastical endorsements.
