Summary |
"In order to glimpse America's future, one needs to look no further than its college campuses. Of those institutions, none holds more clout than Yale University. Yet the school has become a full-fledged moral battleground where: A porn star gives a topless S&M demonstration in a classroom A student had received approval for an art project she said included tissue from repeated self-induced miscarriages The infamous Sex Week is held every two years Loathe for years to host ROTC, Yale nonetheless once employed a professor who praised the Hamas terrorist organization In this reboot of William F. Buckley's classic God and Man at Yale, 2009 Yale graduate Harden offers a provocative account of what really goes on inside "The Cradle of Presidents," one that will shock any parent of a college-bound student. Sex and God at Yale is a must for anyone concerned by what really goes on at one of America's elite universities"-- Provided by publisher. |
