I'm with Michael on this one.  

I really think what we need to be doing is educating people on the word
"UNIX" and what it means and how it relates to Linux, BSD, etc etc. 
Renaming the group BYU Linux Users Group would be like renaming a club named
BYU Microsoft Windows Users Group to BYU Microsoft Windows XP Professional
Sevice Pack One Users Group.  It's just limiting us.
