Yale To Post Essays On Sex On University Website

The Hartford Courant reports:

To show that Yale social life isn't all about hooking up, university officials are asking students to submit essays on sex, which will be posted on the website of the Yale College dean's office.

Melanie Boyd, director of undergraduate studies at Yale's Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies program, is one of the organizers of the "sex@yale" initiative. She says the project is designed partly to counteract a popular notion of Yale student life as being all about casual sex. The essays will be up on the site this summer.

Pell Grants were meant for writing essays.
