Principal bans tape on sociology class sparks student protest
Students and instructor Arrowsmith voiced strong objections at a board meeting over the district policy and Principal Hendricks after a videotape titled Sex for Sale The Urban Battleground was barred from class. Arrowsmith argued the tape contents were misread and would have aided lessons. Hendricks cited segments with topless or near nude imagery and noted the need for district approval. He warned showing it could end his career, and he admitted reluctance due to prior controversy from a Planned Parenthood film. The board ordered an investigation into student charges that Hendricks ignored complaints while resisting policy changes.
