<p> Atten-shun! There will be no sex in dormitories. That's an
order at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado, and for many
of the school's 4,410 cadets, 553 of whom are women, it is one
of the toughest to obey. But rarely has the rule been breached
as flagrantly as in a case revealed last week: a sexual
encounter between a male and a female cadet, conducted under
the watchful eyes of six male classmates hiding in a dorm
closet. The romp landed the woman, who became distraught upon
learning how public the performance had been, in a military
hospital following an accidental overdose of pain relievers.

<p> Five of the cadets involved in the episode have resigned,
and action is pending against the remaining three, including
the woman. Says academy spokesman Lieut. Colonel Greg Dziuban:
"The cadets were there to help their friend break off his
relationship. They were going to jump out of the closet, but
somehow things got going too quickly. Everyone was clearly
aware of the prohibition against sex in the dormitory."
