Naomi Epps Best is a 26-year-old Marriage and Family Therapy student at Santa Clara University. She says she was fired from her internship just one day after publishing a Wall Street Journal op-ed on June 6th. In the op-ed titled “Santa Clara University’s Crazy Idea of Human Sexuality,” she criticized SCU’s required coursework, which she described as “pornographic and coercive.”
