The University of California San Diego, the naked final exam is a requirement for a class in the visual arts department.
Students are required to perform “a gesture that traces, outlines or speaks about your ‘erotic self(s).’” In the performance, all of the students are naked, along with the professor, Roberto Dominguez, who has taught the class for eleven years.
“It’s the standard canvas for performance art and body art,” Dominguez told local ABC News affiliate KGTV. “It is all very controlled…If they are uncomfortable with this gesture, they should not take the class.” He was defending the class after one mother spoke out, claiming the requirement was not clear and was a “perversion.”
