Arousing debate

Megan Twohey reported in yesterday's Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that rumors University of Wisconsin--Madison undergrads spend all their free time drinking are unfounded. For example, there's Sex Out Loud, a student organizaion funded, with $90,000 this year, from the fees all students are required to pay.
Begun a decade ago to provide information about HIV and other sexually transmitted infections, the group has expanded to include graphic workshops on how to give and receive sexual pleasure.

In an accompanying photo,
UW sophomore Tony Uhl tries to guess what body part Sarah Olson is describing ...

Which you can see, from the sign on her back, is "belly button".
... "A vast majority of students arrive on campus with virtually no real sexual education," said John DeLamater, a sociology professor at UW-Madison who teaches a course on human sexuality.

As a course, it would be funded by tuition and taxes, not student fees. Maybe his course teaches the term "navel".
