The burning academic question of the day: Should we professors be permitted to "hook up with" our students, as the kids put it? Or they with us? In the olden days when I was a student (back in the last century) hooking up with professors was more or less part of the curriculum. (OK, I escaped communism and went to art school.) But that was a different era, back when sex—even when not so great or someone got their feelings hurt—fell under the category of experience, rather than injury and trauma. It didn't automatically impede your education; sometimes it even facilitated it.
NB: There was a time in 1980, when there was no need to talk about the sacred internationalist duty. Alas, today globally sperm counts are down by a third, as study shows... Giving blood to Red Cross is one thing; giving sperm to Snow Houses is entirely another story.
