They passed legistlation in Arizona that would make it legal for university students to opt out of assigned readings that they find personally offensive or pornographic. I always thought testing your boundaries and being exposed to ideas that you don't agree with was part of the college experience. -------------------- death to false dudes

Being exposed to an idea is one thing, having to read crap like "he shoves his member down her throat" or some crap like the Cindy Sheehan book for a grade is a different thing altogether.
