disciplinary action.

•Clemson is requiring students and faculty to complete an online course through a third party website that asks invasive questions about sexual history.

•In an email Clemson says that failure to complete the course will be a violation of the “Student Code of Conduct, General Student Regulation 8: Failure to Comply with Official Request.”



Clemson University is requiring students to reveal how many times they’ve had sex in the past month and with how many partners.

In screenshots obtained exclusively by Campus Reform, the South Carolina university is asking students invasive and personal questions about their drinking habits and sex life as part of what they’ve billed as an online Title IX training course.


“How many times have you had sex (including oral) in the last 3 months?” asks one question.

“With how many different people have you had sex (including oral) in the last 3 months?” asks another.

In a campus-wide email, the South Carolina university announced that all students, faculty, and staff would be required to complete a mandatory, one-hour long Title IX training course by November 1.

“We believe you’ll enjoy the assignment,” the email, provided to Campus Reform, reads. “It is an engaging and informative online course, created with students for students. It will provide you with useful information regarding sexual violence and relationships. The course promotes a healthier and safer campus environment.”

Title 9 is an abomination.

The gender policing is hilarious, going full circle back to the turrble days of the repressed past. Academic Feminism has jumped from a menace, to being modern day fascists.

Oh, I'd have a field day with this.

How many times have you had oral sex this month?
Answer: Giving or getting? If Giving to a willing female partner of age, 372 times. If taking from a willing and able female partner of legal age in South carolina...373 times.

How many different people have you had sex with in the last 3 months? 973 willing and able females legal in the state of South Carolina. My dick is actually fairly chapped because of this...do you offer free medical services for chapped penises?

Taters are taters

Tater students
Tater admins

It would be like kids on the short bus being quizzed by fellow short bus riders who were older by a decade or so but still trying to pass the same grade.

When I entered Bama I was required to take a course called Alcohol Edu that inquired about my drinking habits. I lied and moved on with my life because who the hell cares?

I got a similar email through my college. I haven't logged into it yet and completed it but they are telling us it's mandatory.

If I got a similar email from my school or place of work I'd ignore it and if faced with the so called disciplinary actions sue on the grounds of invasion of my privacy + whatever else a good lawyer can think I can add on.

FWIW, as you go through you have the option to leave answers blank if you don't feel comfortable answering. So far it's been pretty basic demographic stuff. And lots of "don't be a creepy McCreeperson" videos.

Hopefully this will help them begin to address the raging problems of incest and inbreeding that have long plagued the upstate.

Finished the course. What a waste of time and I'm sure money that was put into this program. Seriously. It was pretty basic, common sense stuff.

And apparently you can't "finish" the course until they send a 30 day intercession deal in October with a final survey.

Good times.

I dated a Clemson drop-out (rich parents, loved blow a little too much, rehab, crazy). She was a straight up dirty slut. Very fun fling with no life-long memories, thank god.

I say all that to say maybe they're having issues in their clinics with STDs and alcohol related instances. Maybe it's just a proactive step on their part. It's not like any of the info can be used in a derogatory fashion against the student.

It's a Title IX funding deal and I believe most schools will eventually end up doing it. When you log into the course there's a note from your university/college saying that it's Title IX based and gives the Title IX contact for your school as well. I'm willing to bet if they don't get a certain percentage of participation (hence the fear-mongering emails) then they lose funding.
