If only this board had someone who currently has an 18-year-old teenage daughter on campus who could weigh in on this discussion…
When I was there we just had a standing “word of mouth” invitation to Tuesday night porno night at one particular frat house on Talawanda. Admission was a buck. Nothing in writing. A pretty good running back ran the 16mm projector.
Well, if the topic doesn’t bother you and the content doesn’t bother you, why exactly should termination be considered?
Definitely not mad. But very embarrassed.
Termination? Sure.
The university should terminate an employee because you’re embarrassed?
This is truly embarrassing and deflating. We experience indoctrination accusations and questions about the worthiness of attending college virtually every day, and then a person who is a graduate student in Student Affairs in Higher Education, and clearly should know better, does something stupid like this. Adding fuel to the fire …
“The university should terminate an employee because you’re embarrassed?”
What?
Read the post above this one. It most accurately describes the situation.
Couldn’t agree more. If you think something like this should merely be “laughed off” or only addressed with a tweet from the university account (signed by no one), you are enabling this unprofessional and embarrassing work.
Could you imagine if a guy sent that email instead of a girl?
Yikesssss
It seems to me no one is asking the important questions. Was the sex spooky? Are there horny ghosts haunting the basement of Emerson? What does the ghost of Helen Peabody think about these horny, spooky ghosts? We need follow-up on this.
WWSD?

Swoop would have spooky sex.

This is what I thought. She was just trying to be clever and funny and it is probably an ongoing program promoting safe sex and contraceptives that students are familiar with. Taken out of context like this it might be considered offensive to outsiders.
Like, was this stupid? Sure. 25 years ago, without an entire outrage-industrial complex (on all partisan fronts!) dedicated to finding stupid things and trying to ruin those who do them, would anyone have known about it? No. We’d all be better off and have lower blood pressure if we didn’t seek out people who do stupid things that don’t affect us, IMO.
But really, we need a Student reporter to follow up on whether the dildoes were actually possessed by sex demons or something.
Maybe we’re all missing the real issue, which is that the email made no sense. Because everyone knows the spookiest sex is the kind that produces little humans running around.
Accurate assessment. It was sent via Miami’s internal email so in reality, it was a childish play on words.
