IU students suspected of participating in pornography

Indiana University students may have participated in making an adult film on their Bloomington campus recently, but administrators are still reviewing the report to decide consequences.

Jane Jankowski, director of public communications for Indiana University, said in early October an adult film company was on the Bloomington campus for “a short time,” shooting a film with students in Teter residence hall. The company was eventually asked to leave Teter by a resident manager.

Jankowski said she had no further information regarding how many students were involved and couldn’t elaborate on what exactly was filmed.

“I don’t know what exact events occurred,” she said.

Administration at the university has not taken action as of yet but intends to pursue campus judiciary action according to the student conduct code and housing code of conduct.

So far, the university has sent a letter to the company indicating that if it was to return to the campus it would be charged with trespassing and be prosecuted to the fullest extent. Also, the university warned of unauthorized use of university trademarks.

Jankowski said the university was extremely disturbed by the incident because the company “expressed purpose of exploiting and embarrassing the university.”

The company also has filmed unauthorized adult films on other college campuses, and Jankowski said the university hopes this incident will help inform other schools and prevent another situation.
