(23,272 posts)Honestly, I'm not fixated on the "event". I'm ALL about anything that encourages this age group to practice safe sex and use condoms. My larger point was that you have to expect that college students are going to be doing college stuff on campus so there shouldn't have been any surprises.
In my day it was streakers. Every day one, two and sometimes a group streaking across the quad. There were always people smoking MJ. Open groping/bordering on sex action by couples. Frat guys in leashes during hazing....
... and yes, all the other usual boring stuff. College campus' are occupied by adults. The teachers had to have been college educated, they know what CAN be going on in the quad. Sounds like they decided the field trip was worth it.
And FWIW, I agree. Get the kids interested in this terrific new place that they can aspire to. Even with shenanigans (and I reiterate, I don't see the activities in the OP as shenanigans but a fun way to get attention and get people to come over, explore what's going on, and get condoms!)
