Sexual Health Week
Sponsored by the Student Life Department
Let’s Talk about Sex
A
documentary film exploring perceptions and attitudes sex and sexual activity in
American adolescents. “We live in a society that uses sex to sell everything
from lipstick to laptops. Yet fear and silence around sex and sexuality also
permeate our culture. Teens are paying a terrible price for this confusion in
unintended pregnancy, STDs, and even HIV… [but] American taxpayers are paying
billions to treat these entirely preventable problems.” Through intimate
interviews with teens, parents, and professionals in the field, director James
Houston challenges the viewer to confront uncomfortable subject matter a
societal and personal level.

Thursday October 24th ~ 8:00-10:00pm in the

Condom Casino
This
highly interactive program uses casino games and condoms to relate to the
“CAMPUS HOOK UP CULTURE”. This unique combination of casino play masterfully
intertwined with topics like safe sex, sexual consequences, sexual choices and
sexual identity guarantees to create a compelling and thought provoking evening
for any college student. Games like Beer Goggle Black Jack, STD Bingo, and the
Lucky In Love Dice game all combine an awareness component while still keeping
the sizzle of a real Vegas casino. It is fun, it is fast paced, it is full of
surprises and it is certainly a safe bet to sex awareness!
