This case stands in stark contrast to a similar occurrence last year when a student was caught for the same crime. The Crimson did not meddle in the affair; it merely reported after the fact that an unnamed student was put on disciplinary probation for his illicit activity.

During the last five years, police have repeatedly sought to crack down on illicit sexual activity in the Science Center bathrooms. In 1985, Dean of Students Archie C. Epps III ordered the doors on lavatory stalls removed, shortly after two undergraduates and a University employee filed formal complaints that they had been harassed in the bathroom...
Along with new functions have come new problems. In many cities, brawls, drug deals and illicit sex in the rest rooms are not uncommon.

"If we go wrong here, hope will be lost in many parts of this continent," says Richard Leakey, who became head of the department in April. "If we go right here, there is a chance for things to happen elsewhere much more rapidly than any of us would have dared to believe...
