Sexual Harassment, Masturbation, and a Brown Bear
Last week Yale University suspended its chapter of the Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity, nearly two months after the Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights launched an investigation into the claim that Yale's sexual harassment policies violated Title IX regulations. The school says that DKE—whose notable alumni include George W. Bush and George H. W. Bush—violated its policies by, among other things, making its pledges chant phrases like "No means yes, yes means anal." Until its suspension is lifted, DKE is no longer allowed to hold chapter meetings on campus or recruit new members.
Sex Toys, ROTC, and Conan
Northwestern University canceled a human sexuality class that sparked controversy earlier this year after its professor approved an optional live demonstration that involved a half-naked woman being penetrated with a mechanized sex toy in front of about 100 students. According to a statement from the university, J. Michael Bailey—the class's professor—"will have other teaching assignments in the coming year." The university's investigation of the incident—launched in March—is still ongoing.

Oral Sex, Snooki, and Sexual Harassment
Over a week ago, the University of North Florida's student newspaper reported on new studies implicating oral sex as a potential cause of throat cancer. But the newspaper's cover, depicting a man going down on a half-naked woman, generated more controversy than the content itself. According to The Florida Times-Union, the university's president, John Delaney, called the picture distasteful and inappropriate and said that he had received many complaints about the cover photo, mostly from women. Facebook later flagged the profile of the online editor of Spinnaker after he posted the cover on his wall.
