I was in charge of the printmaking display cases a few years back, and put up a gorgeous, gigantic lithograph I found in our archives (by a past student, not me) of a man with three baboon heads masturbating. It was up for a week, until open-house rolled 'round, and then I was told to take it down. I fought bitterly! Took it to the administration! But in the end, it had to come down for that week... :( So schools, or at least art schools, seem okay with it... and we students definitely are, as are the art professors... I think the heads of the schools are just paranoid about what the outside world, particularly parents (who pay their bills), will think. Is it possible that Libby's school's student show is very open to the public? The school might be making this grave mistake in hopes of maintaining public image (as if artists haven't been dealing with nudity for centuries now. Pfft.) Sounds familiar :\
