I would have disagreed with this years ago but given the chasm in class interactions and the race and gender hysteria that has ensued by people with too much time and comfort on their hands, mandatory service would assist class integration, discipline and hopefully mutual respect.

why would an LDS person complain about this? I'm a "retired Mormon" (Raise in the faith, seminary & BYU graduate, RM, and kicked out of my congregation for not being married by 30 years old so I have since left....and that's a whole other conversation.) I served my church for 18 months when I was 21 years old. Service is part of any church person's DNA. I think mandatory service as a gap year before college or a trade school would be a great idea!
