PHILADELPHIA -- A junior at the University of Pennsylvania faces punishment from the school for posting photos he took of two naked students who could be seen through a dorm window, according to confidential memos obtained by a student newspaper.

 

Photo Linked Here

 

Basically the couple were easily seen from the street. They seem to be having sex in a window. The student snapped a picture, posted it on his personal web site which is University hosted, and now risks suspension.

I don't know...does the "Girls Gone Wild" precedent apply here? That court ruling basically said that anything done in a public setting could be photographed/videotaped and there was no limit on what could be done with it.

 

Is an open window a public setting I guess is the question.

Well, if the college has rules about pornographic material on university-hosted web sites, then there's no question the kid earned the suspension by violating a clearly spelled out rule (assuming the rule is clearly spelled out somewhere).
