Yes and no. Mayo should be applauded for having such a class. What I saw of it prior ot the panel discussion was RIGHT ON!
The class instructor wanted a SIMPLE, SMALL panel. A lesbo, a homo, and an alli. The lesbo didn't show up.
I've been in LARGE panel groups before with more than one gay person (male/female) which can cause more problems than good. Yes, its great to have more than one of the homo-species on board, but that can cause a disagreement in attitudes towards the panel members and more of a heated debate between the panel than an open discussion with the class.
