Conversio Virium
Conversio Virium (CV), one of the oldest university student-run
History
In 1994, soon after Conversio Virium's inception, a Columbia University Christian group accused CV of violating its own constitution and as a result the university expelled CV from its grounds.[citation needed] The accusations were eventually proven untrue and CV was reinstated as an official Columbia University student organization.[citation needed] In the process, CV gained many allies from both the BDSM community and elsewhere, including Robert B. Chatelle, Board Member of the National Writers Union at the time, who wrote to CV offering support.[4]
In 2007, Conversio Virium made national television headlines when Fox News invited Ann Coulter[5] to comment on an article published in the New York Daily News about the university's sex clubs called Wild Sex 101,[6] in which the club and the university was criticized.[7]
