Western Nevada College Sex Prof. Tom Kubistant demanded students masturbate, detail sex-lives to pass 'sexuality' class, claims student Karen Royce in lawsuit
“I raised my hand and said, "I don't masturbate," Royce reveals. "He said I had to do it at least three times in order to get a grade in the class." Kubistant reportedly asked students, some of whom were high-schoolers taking the course for college credit, to list different types of sex and sexual positions
On the first day of class, Kubistant allegedly told students that he would "increase their sexual urges to such a height that they won't be able to think about anything other than sex."
Kubistant reportedly then asked students, some of whom were high-schoolers taking the course for college credit, to list different types of sex and sexual positions, according to ABC.
The lawsuit alleges that the professor read the lists aloud to the class and then asked the students to write three 250-word journal entries about their sexual thoughts for homework.
Kubistant also reportedly assigned a 14-page term paper which required students to detail sexual exploration, abuse - including rape - virginity loss, cheating, fetishes and orgasms, among other things, ABC reports.

"In fact, the investigator found that the instructor was considered to be an excellent and caring professor, who, with the exception of that one student, appeared to be universally admired by other students who had taken the course," the college’s spokeswoman Anne Hansen said in a statement.
Royce appealed to the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights when the investigation ended.
In a letter dated Jan. 25, the office said it agreed with the college's investigation and would not pursue Royce’s claims any further, according to ABC.
Royce then decided to file a federal lawsuit, which McKenna expects to be heard in court in a year.
"I think he needs to be terminated. He has crossed so many ethical, legal and moral boundaries," McKenna said. "My mind immediately went to the question is he grooming these young 17-, 18-, 19-year-olds so he can have further contact with them outside the school environment?"
Kubistant did not respond to requests for comment and still teaches at the college.
