Are all colleges in Utah Mormon?

No, certainly not, although there are Mormons attending every college in Utah (and in fact, it's quite likely that there are Mormons attending every college/university in the nation, perhaps with the exception of some Catholic or Protestant schools). The only schools in Utah that are affiliated with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) in Utah are Brigham Young University in Provo and LDS Business College in Salt Lake City. Other large Universities in Utah, such as Utah State, Weber State, University of Utah, Utah Valley University, Snow College, Salt Lake Community College, Southern Utah University, and Dixie State are all public universities affiliated with the state. Westminster is a large private liberal arts school in Salt Lake City that is also unaffiliated with the LDS Church.

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 percentage of Utah politicians are Mormon?

Politicians in Utah are not required to reveal their religious preferences, and most do not. Additionally, it would be impossible to list and research all the politicians at the state and local level, since there are hundreds (including city mayors, city council members, etc) We can assume (and it appears to be true) that the percentage of Mormons among politicians in Utah mirrors that of the general population, with about 60-80% being Mormon depending on the area.

No. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) does not run the state of Utah. The Government of the State of Utah runs the state of Utah. Theocratic governments are not allowed within the United States. About 60-70% of the state-level politicians in Utah are members of the Mormon church, which is simply a reflection of the fact that about 65% of the residents of Utah are practicing Mormons.
