Baylor University have sent a letter to female students threatening disciplinary action against any Baylor woman who poses for Playboy. Baylor, located in Waco, Texas, calls itself the largest Baptist college.
Playboy photographers came to Baylor's hometown seeking models for a photo spread on women of the Big 12 college athletic conference, of which the college is a member.
Baylor Vice President for Student Life Samuel W. Oliver sent an e-mail to women students this week warning that any who "associate" with Playboy would be subject to the university's disciplinary processes.
"Playboy is clearly antithetical to Baylor's mission and associating with the magazine would be a violation of the code of conduct," Oliver wrote in the e-mail. University officials said punishment could include suspension.
We here at Blue Crab Boulevard take a dim view of suppression of free speech. We also heartily endorse the right to bare arms. And other things.
Posing nude isnt speech my friend…so I may disagree respectfully..maintaining dignity of an institution includes women not sexualizing and degrading themselves as well as all the women there…..:)
Angel,
If you look around a bit, you’ll notice I try to get a little humor in the place. Laugh, it was a joke.
Ah…I will keep dat in mind…Friends?..heh..:)
Yeah. I like to have fun with this, too. If we can’t laugh, all we have left is to cry……
