Recently, Duke University hosted a "Sex Workers Symposium" and brought in stripers to discuss their trade. This at a "Methodist" school and also the place of the lacrose scandal.

The only scandal was the rush to judgment from a famed law school without any evidence who now owes these lads multimillions.

Okay, first things first
(A) Nevada is the only state to have legal prostitution... surprise!
(B) The World does as the world is... were there any Chrstians in that class, they could/should have opted out.
(C) This is yet another reason why I pray all night
(D) Much of America is consumed with the idea of "no strings sex", so I guess the field trip fit the class description.

My cousin graduated from this college in 1999 when it was still an all female school. The graduation ceremony was a very eye opening experience for me. The whole culture of the school was very socialy liberal. There were many same sex couples. When I read this news story, I was not suprised at all to find out the name of the school involved.

Thursday’s class trip, which included seminars from the working girls, capped a course on American consumption and “the ideas that consume us.”
As if brothel's and "working girls" are an entirely American phenomenon!...it would be interesting to know how many 'non-Americans" find their way to the brothels, in comparison to Americans....
why not take a trip to The Netherlands? Or Bangkok? Or, many other places around the world?
How about a study on capitalism, free markets and democracy? Those are ideas that certainly 'consume" more people...and are what makes America unique, and far more successful than any other country on the planet....but, that would actually take 'brain power'....
(but, it could be argued that brothels are actually "capitalism" and "free markets" at work, i guess....)

The movie "Pretty Woman" painted a false picture of prositition. In depicting there is no pitfalls of the profession. I wonder how many abortions the women have had, how many STDs, how many are in a stable relationship?

Not even getting into the moral side of this, to me that's just time wasted that could have been spent learning math/science/ foreign language, etc. I guess that's kinda what Kerns family was saying.
