Furman University once lost its religion. Now it has gained another one. That was the lesson I drew from the “Sextacular,” a Furman-sponsored event, held in front of the James B. Duke Library on campus.

Walking down the library steps holding several condoms and a grape-flavored dental dam (and a stamp card for a free snow cone!), I wondered if the advice we had been given, “to claim ownership of our bodies,” was the advice of the university itself.
