At least we don't have any faculty who legally argued for torture! (None that I know of, that is.)

Alleged abortion art at Yale

Let's start with a controversy, shall we? I still think that Aliza Shvarts is in desperate need for attention and that Yale is doing the right thing. I also agree with this more thoughtful take, whose author has subsequently compiled an incomplete but fairly extensive list of artistic acts that could be seen as self-abusing and "shocking."

The latest: Shvarts submits an alternate project.
