I'm curious about how you came across this post after it had been asleep for almost three years. Were you doing a keyword search for "orgy?"

At Yale? Do our taxes support this crap?

At Yale? No, your taxes do not.

No...it's related to a new topic about nude parties this year at Yale. They are all the rage.

I am just a casual observer of the human condition, and how it is becming less andless human at colleges like Yale.

This all supports the truth of Tom Wolfe's book, "I Am Charlotte Simmons", which emphasizes the decadence at today's Ivy League universities.

That phenomenon is not new. They have been going on since at least the president's first term. The rumor about Barbara attending one started then. And there have been several threads on it posted on this website. Liberal gossip journalists love to re-hash this story periodically so that they can use it to embarass the president. I highly doubt Barbara Bush would put herself in that situation (especially since she has a SS escort everywhere she goes), but who knows?

Typical, and common, in American universities. This is a favorite tactic of the left. It operates on young people eager to escape parental authority. Universities, basically instruments of communist indoctrination, have adopted as their goal the elimination of all forms of ethical/moral rules that the students may have learned from their parents and religion.
Universities pretend to give permission to the students to do anything that they may desire. Once the students have given in to their carnal desires, they readily adopt the new moral code.
Note: drunken revelry makes all this easier, and so, as you may have noticed, universities deliberately promote drunken revelry.

Last note: although universities give permission for unrestricted sex, they expel heterosexual males who take advantge of the new moral code.

According to event organizer and Yale senior Eric Rubenstein, Sex Week was supposed to open discussion about issues of love, intimacy, and romance, and was timed to coincide with Valentine's Day, to distract the many unattached Yalies who, Rubenstein says, are made lonely and depressed by the holiday.

Oh puhleeze.

How could Jean Shepherd be tied into this article? I thought he was about as squeaky cleans they came.

As much as I appreciate a good knock-down-drag-out between traditional conservatives and libertarians, I think some of you are missing the point here.

Hard-working people are paying more than $40,000 a year in tuition in the reasonable expectation that their little Josh or Julie will actually be exposed to something bearing a faint resemblance to "Education". Instead, when they are not being pestered by pro-Communist profs preaching Correctness Über Alles, they get Dental Dams and Dildoes 101.

Jean Shepherd used to write for Playboy, back in the 1960's, when it actually featured articles by the likes of John Updike, Kurt Vonnegut, Gore Vidal, Tom Wolfe, and others. The running joke was that "I only buy it for the articles", and it was a damned plausible proposition at one time, too.

As for me, I only stole it from my dad's bottom drawer for the articles.

He wrote some of his best stories for Playboy; I used to buy the magazine just for his stories.

From the original Charter of Yale College:

...the charter was granted for a school “wherein Youth may be instructed in the Arts and Sciences [and] through the blessing of Almighty God may be fitted for Publick employment both in Church and Civil State.”

It seems Yale has veered far from it's original course indeed.

I notice the "Rubenstien" running Yale's sex-week (What ? Do they really attend classes anymore?) IMMEDIATELY brought his abject hatred of Bush into the discussion with his rant: " ..if Bush can stand running the country when more people voted for his opponent...."

You have it exactly right.

The kids coming out of these schools are moral misfits and codependent weaklings. It takes ten more years of living at home with Mom and Dad until they get their lives together and move out on their own (if ever). The "failure to launch" phenomenon.
