What Your Kids Really Learn At College

Last night's post had a caveman-sex theme. This morning we're going to take the opposite approach - a higher education perspective on sex.

Public University Plans Event To help Female Students Achieve Orgasm
The University of Minnesota - Twin Cities (UMTC) is set to hold an event this spring designed to help its female undergraduate students achieve more and greater orgasms.

 The university’s official online description of the event entitled, “The Female Orgasm,” describes it as open to both male and female students.
"...open to..."

Snicker, snicker.
“Orgasm aficionados and beginners of all genders are welcome to come learn about everything from multiple orgasms to that mysterious G-spot,” reads the description posted on the school’s official events calendar.

“Whether you want to learn how to have your first orgasm, how to have better ones, or how to help you girlfriend, Kate and Marshall cover it all…” it adds.

“Are you coming?” it asks.
Well, at least they have a sense of humor.
The description of the event, which is hosted by the university’s Office of Diversity and Equity's Women's Center...
Of course. Who else but feminists would need a college course in how to find their happy place?

...does not say whether there is an age requirement.
Oh God, please make there be an age limit - say, greater than 18 and less than a well-preserved 50.
The program is costing the university $3,406 and is part of the university’s mission of “research”...
I couldn't find any mention of an admission fee or other charge for the event. So I assume the good taxpayers of the state of Minnesota are footing the bill for this orgasm-palozza.


A large part of my professional life involves conducting research. Obviously, however, I have been engaged in the wrong kind of research. I study strategic management issues related to information systems, which is interesting, but not nearly as much fun as studying orgasms.


Maybe it's time to change majors...
