were fuming, and students were divided
about whether photographs of
nude males and a poem about child
molestation constituted art or pornography.
About 2,000 copies of Share Magazine
were distributed on campus in
early February. The cover shows a
double image of a woman with her
tongue extended, which artistically appears
to be two women kissing with
a tiny figure of a man dancing on the
tongues.
Inside was a photograph of two
naked men, one with exposed genii
tals, and a poem called "Uncle Bill"
that described an act of child molestation,
in addition to other examples
of student art and writing such
as photos of nature and a short story
about a cockroach contemplating sui(
cide.
1 Student editors, faculty advisers and
administrators held advance discus
sions about the ramifications of publishing
the nude photographs, but adl~l
ministrators said they stayed out of

"I meant only to bring up that it
happens and to make people thing
about it," he said.
Still, the magazine struck a nerve
with some conservative students and
two men, Greg Lawrence and G.R.
Graves, who filed a complaint with
the Cobb County attorney's office
claiming the publication is porno?

student newspaper, The Sentinel,
published a flurry of letters and editorials
about the subject, and open forums

press views about the magazine's content.

"If it was carved in marble 2,000
years ago in Greece, it would be a
great work of an," said Warren Baucom,
a junior majoring in business
management. "Because it was a photograph
taken yesterday, everyonie
gets upset."
Sean Jerguson, a senior biology major,
took a different point of vievf,
"I fully support First Amendment
rights, and I prefer to live in a society
where we can express our opinions
freely in writing and in art," he said.
"We need to consider the society and 0
community in which we live...Some
of the content in Share is inappropriate
on this campus." '.
Some said they were upset that student
activities fees were used to publish
the magazine.
"I'm very much opposed to the homosexual
overtones, and I am against
the seemingly positive reference to
child molestation," said John Belfflower,
a history major.
Others said people didn't have to

"If you don't like it, don't read it," |
said Trish Martorana, a business administration
major.
One wag contended that students
were only too eager to be offended.
"As far as harming the delicate sensibilities
of impressionable youth, I'm
guessing that any child who would
have tried to get a copy would have
been stomped into the ground by the
rush of pornography-starved college
students looking for a cheap thrill,"
wrote Marty Dye, a Sentinel colum
nist.
The controversy has had one gooc
effect, though.
"I think we did the next editors a fit
vor by pushing things with this issu^
of Share," said David Wishart, literary,
editor of the magazine. "More people*
are aware of the magazine now ana
are readine it."
