When photographers from the famous men-targeted magazine Playboy traveled to Waco Texas, they hoped to find a new 'Bunny' at Baylor University. What they found instead, was the cold shoulder.

Officials from the self-billed 'world's largest Baptist university' threatened to expel any female student caught associating with Playboy. Baylor Vice President for Student Life Samuel W. Oliver declared in a mass e-mail: "Playboy is clearly antithetical to Baylor's mission and associating with the magazine would be a violation of the code of conduct."

Female students still braved the university's wrath and met with photographers, though Playboy isn't releasing the exact number. A spokesperson from the magazine also claimed that they were not looking to cause trouble for female students.

Do you think any university has the right to dictate the actions of its students outside of campus? Would any other magazine have caused such a ruckus? What would you do as a Baylor student?

The Internet is buzzing loudly about this one. Go here for a full listing of news articles.
