The Female Orgasm at Hamilton College
The Female Orgasm

Description
The Female Orgasm combines sex education and women’s empowerment with a hearty dose of laughter. Sex educators Dorian Solot and Marshall Miller bring a playful, honest approach to this topic, packing the house on college campuses. With warmth and humor, they illuminate the subject of female orgasm for women who aren’t having them, guys who want to make their girlfriends happy, and students who are debating the existence of the G-spot or “to fake or not to fake?”. This program is inclusive of people of all genders and sexual orientations.

Of course, the notice about the Female Orgasm merchandise is not on the publicly available website, but only on the email that we understand was sent to all campus recipients:

Dorian and Marshall cover it all with lots of humor, plenty of honesty, and an underlying message of sexual health and women’s empowerment. Are you coming?
sponsored by the Womyn’s Center, ELS and the Kirkland Endowment
I <3 Female Orgasm merchandise available before and after event!

The Womyn’s Center and the Kirkland Project (or however renamed) extends this of celebration of diversity as a warm welcome to Chairman Lafley in his new capacity. We hope he attends.
If you’d like a stark comparison of scholarly agenda, check out the activity of the Alexander Hamilton Institute. Hamilton College unfortunately continues to evidence no concept of pedagogical mission and less appreciation of the scarcity of resources.
We believe there are choices for alumni to make. If you think this kind of activity is not the highest & best use of scarce alumni resources, you can support the AHI .
It’s your school…or at least it used to be.

Well, Ladies and Gentlemen, here is an example of President Stewart's day to day management. Shameful.
Send your money as I did long ago to the AHI.
You should remove [name]'s telephone number from this post immediately.
It is inappropriate to post a student's telephone number on this blog, regardless of whether it is contained in the event listing on HOLAC. [You removed Joan Stewart's telephone number when I posted it.]
Frankly, I believe it equally inappropriate to post her email address.
You should know better.
If you have a gripe, pick it with them.

When I suggested to some disgruntled alum in a prior post to call Joan Stewart's office (and provided the number), the telephone number was removed by Hunter. That number is posted on HOLAC also.
This is a student; not an office at the College.
Hunter should know better. And so should you!
The initial posting was a direct copy from a publicly available portion of the College's web site. The link was cited and posted under the presumption that the individual cited as the primary contact was an administrator. One could not imagine the college posting student information in this manner. We've removed it here.Regrettably, it remains publicly available on Hamilton's site.
furthermore, if you head to this link (http://www.sexualityeducation.com/femaleorg/tasteful.php) you will see the following quotes:
"it set a tone that values open academic discourse, freedom from sexism and homophobia, and true community. "
- Chair, Women's Studies Council; Chair, President's Commission on Diversity, Plymouth State University
nb: open academic discourse
"I realized that a large part of their message was about respect, communication, and empowerment. What better concepts could we be teaching?"
- Director of the Student Life Center, SUNY Cobleskill

You made me laugh and I am flattered, but as Hunter Brown can attest, I can only dream of looking that good in green tights.
If I were a parent paying or helping to pay $40M+ ( or an alumni supporting the College) which event would I want my student to attend: Jon Stewart - Oragism 101 - AHI Dawson Society discussion of Solzhenitsyn? Mmmmmmm.....it's such a toss-up.
Can't wait for the Sarcasm Police to denounce my post as bigoted and insensitive.
One might wonder how it is that students have access to post without review on the publicly available portion of the College's website?
We might now return focus to the substance of this event, which at face value appears to be the second coming of Annie Sprinkles. It brings a whole new perspective to the concept of in loco parentis and is plain evidence, once again, of the supervisoy incapacity of this administration.
It ties directly to the loss of sensible pedagogy, to a directionless strategy of undefined 'diversity'.
So, we get Jon Stewart for north of $100,000 (will we get the F-word to a Vice Presidential candidate, too?) and Female Orgasm merchandise.
You can't make this stuff up. And Hamilton shouldn't have to.

"Joe Bertolino and Bil Leipold are both student affairs professonals. They are both fraternity men...and they are also gay. They will present their experiences of living in a straight world; from the discrimination they've faced to the challenges involved with telling their families and friends about their sexuality."

I'm not sure I understand what's wrong with this event?
