"The Indiana University Board of Trustees unanimously agreed Friday to jettison a controversial proposal to spin off part of the #Kinsey Institute as a nonprofit.
The proposal came after the Republican-dominated Indiana General Assembly passed a state budget in spring 2023 banning the historic sex research institute from receiving state funds."
"But faculty members publicly expressed fears that such a change might mean losing their affiliations with the institute and could threaten, among other things, the institute’s extensive sex, gender and erotica collections, which span more than 2,000 years of history."
