He who pays the piper calls the tune.
Just as a legislator might well question the value of opening a McDonald's on campus he might also quite reasonably question the educational value of a "pornographic" film, the vast majority of which have absolutely no cinematic value whatsoever, but merely provide the repetitious depiction of sexual acts. If the state is subsidizing a university, it has the same right to insist that the university provide the students the benefits it is paying for as the government has the right to demand that banks which receive federal subsidies don't spend it on bonuses for their executives. Those who wish to practice completely "free speech" should not expect others to subsidize it. Free academic speech does have a value in universities. But there is nothing academic about pornography except of course the argument that it merits the same protection as controversial political views.
