Getting Pumped: Palin's Trip To The Ozarks, And Dubya's New Gig

Sarah Palin's upcoming trip to the College of the Ozarks received a small mention on The Rachel Maddow Show last night. It was followed by a segment on George W. Bush's new motivational speaking tour, which was far more amusing.

And for your reference, here's the full "Lifestyle/Sexuality" section of the COFO student handbook mentioned by Maddow:

Lifestyle/Sexuality

College of the Ozarks is guided by a long-standing traditional, biblical worldview which reflects the understanding that human sexuality is a gift from God and that the purpose of this gift includes the procreation of human life and the uniting and strengthening of the marital bond in self-giving love. These purposes are to be achieved through heterosexual relationships in marriage. Misuses of God’s gift will be understood to include, but not be limited to sexual abuse, sexual harassment, sexual assault, heterosexual misconduct, homosexual conduct, or possession of pornographic materials. In addition, the College considers indiscreet public display of affection as inappropriate behavior.

Employees and students at College of the Ozarks are expected to conduct themselves at all times in accordance with the highest standards of Christian morality. It is particularly important to the College that high standards of sexual morality be observed among its employees and students.

Toward this end, the College may subject to disciplinary action any employee or student who engages in or encourages:

  1. Sexual relations with a person other than his/her spouse;
  2. Sexual relations with a person of the same sex;
  3. Touching, caressing, and other physical conduct of a sexual nature with a person of the same sex;
  4. Touching, caressing, and other physical conduct of a sexual nature with a person of the opposite sex that is inappropriate to the time and place in which it occurs.

Disciplinary action may include disciplinary dismissal.
