Northwestern University "Demonstration". Thoughts?

[OceanAnnie]

What do you think about the Northwestern University "demonstration" that was in the news recently? Poll coming.

I think it was ridiculous, that shouldn't of been allowed ever.
While I can understand pursuit of knowledge watching people do that on stage is in NO WAY knowledge, and the women involved even admitted having people watch her is how she gets off. So another strike against her.
It was tacky and disrespectful and all involved should be digusted with themselves.

No one? It's certainly out of the norm to say the least. Just curious as to how others, especially in college view it.

ETA- Sorry Dreamstuff, we posted at the same time.

Thank you for your reply. Well stated. ITA.

I'm not really sure. From the reports I've read about it, none of the students seemed disturbed by the demonstration. They were warned "at least five or six times" about the explicit nature of the after-class demonstration. While it's not something that I would have liked to witness, as long as those involved didn't have any objections to it, I don't see why I would.
