Steve, it is'nt a "hoot" to me. If they want to sunbathe, let them go out to - now let's see, how many beaches in the area? Or why not on their own campus? Marion Square is in the heart of the business district and tourist area, not the beach or someones backyard.

But them in jail for indencent exposure if thats what it takes and/or get them put on probahition at the college or what ever. But that is inappropriate behavior - no matter how old you are.

This is a serious question. If the exposure is indecent as you say, why should it be allowed on a public beach, any more than in a square in the business district? Should paddy wagons be patrolling the beach too? Fair is fair.

You may have a point. Personally, if I were downtown and saw students in bathing suits, I would pass on by and not staring at them. I probably didn't explain it, but what I meant by this being a "hoot" is this is a headline that would make the front page of our newspaper instead of other concerns in the world. I as a former C of C grad, I never paid attention to the sunbathers at Marion Square if there were any back then. While I wouldn't arrest them for it, I think the college needs to caution these students about what they wear because there are young people who are very impressionable. I thank you for your valued input.
