"Just say no."

If you attended public school anywhere in the Midwest or South, regions collectively referred to as the Bible Belt, it's probably safe to say you are familiar with this position on sex, drugs and alcohol.

However, recent studies show Americans could learn a thing or two about teen sex from the Dutch.

From starting near Hell's Half Acre to its time in Thorp Spring, Texas, to the fire that destroyed the Waco facilities, the university is finally able to celebrate its 100th anniversary in a hometown.

While most don't take it that way, some people on the far right believe it is a call to action, which is obviously nonsense when you view the film.

Though allowing certain viewpoints to flourish might make us cringe, it is still important that Americans remember to appreciate the laws and freedoms provided for in the Constitution.

Dear City of Waco,

It has been more than 100 years since we were graced with your company and goodwill; more than a century since a fire on the fourth floor of our Main Building did more than $150,000 in damage to our facilities and resources and almost as long since we were forced to relocate due to financial strain.
