If a guy you know in high school is Mormon does that mean his family practices polygamy?
Polygamy was practiced in Mormonism many years ago, but is not currently practiced by Mormons today. It is highly unlikely that the kid's family practices polygamy.
_______
While there is a possibility that "this guy"'s family practices polygamy, it is very unlikely. It is true that polygamy, the practice of having multiple wives, was once a part of Mormon tradition, times have changed a great deal since the religion was first founded. It was in 1890 that polygamy was officially rejected as a part of Mormonism, though some sects continue to practice it.
______
Additionally, no sects practice polygamy that are officially part of the church. If you were to practice polygamy now, you would be kicked out of the church... therefore, any "real" Mormon (member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints) would NOT be a polygamist, so your friend in high school almost certainly is not
the people of FLDS practice poligamy they are not Mormons though

Do the Mormon values play a part at the university of Utah?
Approximately 40% of University of Utah students are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church). While the University of Utah is by no means a conservative school, the culture there is sometimes affected by the large proportion of Mormon students. Most of the Mormon students live off-campus and do not participate a great deal in on-campus events. The Mormon Church itself has no influence over the school, but there is a large Institute of Religion across the street from Huntsman Center which provides religious classes, worship services, and activities such as dances and parties. The Institute is open to everyone, and many Mormon students choose to participate in the Institute activites rather than the school-sponsered activities.

What would it be like for a child to be a Mormon?
I was raised as a Mormon child in a Mormon family. My childhood was pretty normal, and I don't feel that it was too different from anyone else's childhood. Here are some facts about the life that most Mormon children have:-Most Mormon kids go to public school. A handful go to private schools or are homeschooled. There are very few "Mormon" private schools, and most Mormon homeschoolers use secular or Christian curriculum because there are few uniquely Mormon options. Beginning in 9th grade, many Mormon kids attend Seminary daily before school.-Most Mormon kids wear the same clothes, play with the same toys, watch the same shows, and listen to the same music as other kids. We have cable TV, we use iPads, we shop at Target. Some parents are more strict than others about what their kids are exposed to, but this can be found among parents of all religions.-Most Mormon kids participate in activities with other kids - dance classes, little league, karate classes, music lessons, etc.-Mormon kids celebrate holidays and birthdays like other kids.-Mormon kids have friends of all religious backgrounds. Most Mormon parents allow their kids to be friends with most anyone, they don't have to restrict their friendships just to kids from church.-Most Mormon kids do go to church for 3 hours each Sunday. They worship with their families for the first hour, then go to age-specific classes for the last two. Here they learn scripture stories and Christian morals through lessons, activities, and music. (Go here to see the curriculum and music for kids ages 2-12 used by all Mormon churches worldwide, and here for the church's kid's website)-Most Mormon boys participate in scouting (Boy Scouts of America in the US) and most Mormon girls participate in a church-created equivalent called Activity Days. Mormon kids start attending weekday youth group activities at age 12.-Most Mormon kids experience family worship at home, including prayer and scripture study. Most Mormon families try to spend a lot of time together to develop strong relationships.-Most Mormon kids are taught leadership skills from an early age. Kids give short sermons, lead congregational and small group prayers, perform and lead worship music at church beginning at age 3 or 4.-Most Mormon kids are baptized and confirmed at age 8. Most Mormon boys are ordained Deacons at age 12.-Most Mormon kids say want to serve as missionaries and then go on to be a mom or dad when they grow up. These ideals are often emphasized by teachers and parents as the life path God intends for His children.
