Vegas Vacation

While nearby colleges battle over the visiting sex workers show on their campus, some students at Randolph College in Lynchburg, Virginia visited a Las Vegas brothel as part of their studies in the American Culture Program.

The brothel tour was a natural fit for a class that tells students, “don’t just study America–live it,” according to program director Julio Rodriguez, who said his original interest in the Nevada trip focused on water rights and conservation.”
