Highly doubt this "story" for many reasons. It's funny these things always happen in "other" countries so you can't easily verify how true they are. I was a student at the U. of Utah for 6 years (4 years undergrad and 2 grad) and although I was out as a gay person, I never needed glory holes for any reason. Though, ironically, the bathroom at one of the major halls is still listed in a local gay guide as a "place to visit." Personally I've known many gay men and not many of them have ever actually used or wanted to use a glory hole. And think about it - is having glory holes so men can get their rocks off really such a bad thing? I mean, you get your rocks off, no questions asked, no one gets pregnant, no woman has to be subjected to any mistreatement by a horny male student - I'm not sure I see a downside.

Good point. If they did install glory holes they'd do it in a much more serious way than just putting them in lecture halls - they'd have a special designated building. But that doesn't seem fair, male students get to have glory holes, what do horny female students get? Screwed but not in a good way.
