Bringing in someone from the art faculty sounds like the best idea, but don't be surprised if they'd rather not get involved. No one is too keen on defending "porn," even if it's only porn in the jaundiced view of someone else. In the drone's defense, he may have just been covering his butt. There well may have been a previous incident where someone was surfing real or imaginary porn and he received orders not to let it happen again. I doubt seriously that the staff has been given any objective guidelines on what constitutes forbidden filth and if they were, it was probably "any pitchers a nekkid wimmens." Hailing from the Great Satan myself, I'd like to say that Texas is in often more backward, ignorant and generally intolerant on these issues than the rest of the country (OK, it is,) but really, I think anywhere you go these days you're liable to face the same problem. This is especially going to be the case at a local educational institution that probably receives tax dollars. All it takes is one righteous citizen to complain to the city council, county supervisors, etc. about their tax money being used to pay for pornography and the admins will fall over themselves to do their bidding. I'd be pissed too and I hope you can get it reversed but I'm afraid it's probably the wrong time and the wrong place to win this one. Try to wrangle a European exchange deal pardner. Yee hah.
