University Of Iowa Offers Porn Class (http://www.theiowachannel.com/education/4501851/detail.html?rss=des&psp=irresistible)

DES MOINES, Iowa -- Some University of Iowa students may be able to get an "A" in X-rated.

The school will be offering a class on porn in the fall semester.

All 20 student slots have been filled and there's a waiting list.

Grad student Jay Clarkson is teaching the course. But he cautioned that students looking for a cheap thrill will be disappointed. He said no films or other explicit material will be shown in class. Clarkson said the class will examine the impact of porno on mainstream culture.

But Iowa House Speaker Chris Rants doesn't like the idea a bit. The lawmaker said the pornography class isn't something that should be taught with taxpayer's money.

Free the boobies!

My mother would have SHIT if I brought home a report card with a pr0n class on it. God, I wish I could have done it.

He's just mad because he couldn't take a pr0n class in college.

Besides...these kids pay some form of tuition (http://www.studentsreview.com/IA/UI_i.html#tuition), right?

Doesn't almost every college offer at least one course on human sexuality nowadays?  And don't those courses all mention porn at some point?  This just seems like a more focused version of that.
