William & Mary Uncensored
by: Don Irvine, February 04, 2008
February 1, 2008— William and Mary school president Gene Nichol okayed students’ requests to hold the “Sex Workers’ Art Show” to be held on campus this week.
The show which features prostitutes, strippers and other sex workers performing their work is part of a nationwide tour that will take them to Harvard and the University of Michigan. The show was scheduled to take place at Virginia Commonwealth University as well but according to Reuban Rodriguez no student requested campus space for the event and the performers violated their contract with the school last year.
Nichol for his part told the Daily Express that he didn’t want to hold the event on campus, probably because he received so much criticism after last year’s event but “the First Amendment and the defining traditions of openness that sustain universities” convinced him to grant permission.. Yes once again the First Amendment trumps reason.
Not only will the show take place on campus but the Student Assembly approved using $2,200 in student fees to help pay for the show. Of course students who object to the show can’t choose to withhold a portion of their fees for this purpose. That’s how democratic the student government process is in higher education. We take your money and spend it any way we like it.
John Foubert who is an education professor at William and Mary and also researches sexual violence toward women and feels that exposing people, particularly men to pornography made them more likely to commit sexual assault...

William and Mary ain't it.
Any local reports of how the W&M campus Wesleyan center and its Methodist staffer, the Rev. David Hindman, might have weighed-in on this latest W&M issue?

William and Mary is a fairly decent school. Every institution has its own issues and should not be judged on the basis of a single event.
In the case of WM, Nichols, their president, appears to have a knack for sparking controversy, angering donors, and effectively destroying the WM endowment.
Good grief. William and Mary? Virginia?
Guess nothing and nobody are immune to the post modern depravity that passes itself for “freedom of thought” these days. Ha, but try to bring an open discussion of the horrors of partial birth abortion to that campus, and there would likely be barricades to prevent it.
William and Mary administration steals $2,200 from students and hires prostitutes, strippers and other sex workers (whateverthehell that means) to perform "their work" on campus.
Just when you think you've heard it all ...
Finally it will be proven that perverts and whores are artistic too.
Hopefully, parents of potential students will tour the festival (leaving their child at home) and see first hand a real institution of higher learning considers worthy.
(Then there's Notre Dame!)
Those greats who walked the streets of Williamsburg (The Old Colonial Capital) are turning over in their graves.
W&M Pres Nichol believes the first amendment extends to this disgusting event. Yet, does not believe the first amendment extends to Christianity and has done everything in his power to remove all traces of Christianity from the W&M campus.
What a freakin’ hypocrite!
CURRENT COMMUNIST GOALS
1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.
2. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.
3. Develop the illusion that total disarmament [by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength.
4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.
5. Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.
6. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.
7. Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N.
8. Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev’s promise in 1955 to settle the German question by free elections under supervision of the U.N.
9. Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the United States has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.
10. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the U.N.
11. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be taken over as easily by the U.N. as by Moscow. Sometimes these two centers compete with each other as they are now doing in the Congo.)
12. Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.
13. Do away with all loyalty oaths.
14. Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office.
15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.
16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.
17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers’ associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
18. Gain control of all student newspapers.
19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.
20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policymaking positions.
21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.
22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to “eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms.”
23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. “Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art.”
24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them “censorship” and a violation of free speech and free press.
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural, healthy.”
27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity which does not need a “religious crutch.”
28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of “separation of church and state.”
29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.
30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the “common man.”
31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the “big picture.” Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.
32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture—education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
33. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.
34. Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.
35. Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.
36. Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.
37. Infiltrate and gain control of big business.
38. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand [or treat].
39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.
40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.
41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.
42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use [”]united force[”] to solve economic, political or social problems.
43. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.
44. Internationalize the Panama Canal.
45. Repeal the Connally reservation so the United States cannot prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction [over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction] over nations and individuals alike.
I recall reading that Penn State had something disgustingly similar a few years ago.
The sex workers’ show was hosted at Duke University yesterday, February 3.
Amen!
