UO Drops Nude Art Class, Draws Fire
Jud Turner covers his heron sculpture near the University of Oregon campus in Eugene, Ore., Monday with a knitted fig leaf in protest over the canceling of figure drawing class at the university. The School of Architecture and Allied Arts' art department has taken a lot of heat since deciding last week to cancel the free three-hour sessions. The department cited concerns about safety for the nude models, and a lack of funding to keep the sessions going. Story here. (AP Photo/The Register-Guard, Chris Pietsch)
Question: Should this class be part of the offerings of a major university like UO?
