Sex and the University: Celebrity, Controversy, and a Student Journalism Revolution

"Move over, Carrie Bradshaw. Daniel Reimold has enthusiastically and exhaustively tackled our erotic fixation with the college sex columnist. He adeptly lives up to his reputation as the preeminent authority on college paper sex scribes with a work that is sure to instigate even more discourse---and debate---on this highly controversial topic."---Yvonne K. Fulbright, PhD, MSEd, and author of Sultry Sex Talk to Seduce Any Lover

"Sex, college, and journalism: is there a more incendiary combination? Sex and the University is the first comprehensive exploration of today's transformational generation of student journalists---revolutionizing their school newspapers one provocative, pedagogic, pun-laden column at a time."---Julia Allison, NBC New York NonStop on-air correspondent

Who would think that Monday morning's page-turning sports scores could be trumped by "Sex on Tuesday"? But, during the last decade or so, college news-paper sex columns and campus sex magazines have revolutionized student journalism and helped define a new sexual generation.

Daniel Reimold explores the celebrity status that student sex columnists and magazine editors have received, the controversies they have caused, and the sexual generation and student journalism revolution they represent. Complete with a "sexicon" of slang, Sex and the University also dives into the columns and magazines, sharing for the first time what modern students are saying about their sex and love lives.

Daniel Reimold is an assistant professor of journalism at the University of Tampa, where he also advises the campus newspaper. Hailed by the Nation as a leading expert on the student sex column movement, he has published and presented research on college media throughout the United States and in Southeast Asia and maintains one of the only daily blogs on the student press worldwide.
