Wesleyan University student drops plans to film student sex flick Courtesy of TMS Campus MIDDLETOWN, Conn. (TMS) — Officials at Wesleyan University have persuaded a junior there to drop his plans to produce a film showing stu dents have sex. The student, Brian Brown, found student support for the project, tentatively titled “Wesporn,” after posting fliers on campus two weeks ago that promised participants that they would “get paid to get laid.” Brown’s flier also stated that the film was designed to “high light the tension and miscon ception between the genders.” Wesleyan’s president, Douglas J. Benenet, said the film would compromise student safety. He and two of the university’s deans met with Brown on Feb. 10 and made him listen to a police audio report on a beating of a female student by a group of men recorded only a few days earlier. Bennet and the deans sug- gested that the film could make similar crimes on campus more likely. “We want to create a cli mate in which there is concern for others’ sensibilities and feel ings,” Bennet said after the meeting. Brown said he felt pres sured to abandon his project. He hopes to get the student newspaper to poll students feel ings about his proposed work. If people on campus endorse his vision or at least don’t object to it, he said he may revive his filming^ "UP FROM THE UNDERGROUND" Featuring DJ BumRush and DJ Flygear Fridays 8pm-4am Real Hip Hop From The Underground Dp Would you like to write for the Pendulum?
