Author Description

Excerpt from Obelisk II, 1976-1977, Vol. 1 Sex. One little word and a captivated audience is guaran teed. Sexual expression has become a cultural and a lifes tyle of its own. College campuses in particular are sex-satu rated. In one form or another, sex is everywhere one turns. There aren't too many left at siu who remember what the dorms were like only six years ago. The present 24-hour visitation, voted on unanimously by the residents them selves, represents a drastic departure from the rigid mores of not so long ago. At that time, visitors of the opposite sex were only allowed in one Sunday a month. Sex draws. And everyone and their uncle are rushing to get on the bandwagon. Theater box offices and adult book stores have been capitalizing on it for years. Now, even the traditionally conservative institutions of society are openly acknowledging the pervasiveness and seeming permanence of the emphasis on sex. After all, when even the President of the United States admits that he has lust for other women in his heart, and in Playboy magazine to boot, it's about time to stop fighting and change with the times. Sexuality services at siu began at the students insist ence in 1970 when information of contraceptive methods was in high demand. Since then, classes and services have expanded greatly.
