TODAY is V-Day. Though most of us will celebrate–or hope to celebrate–February 14 as Valentine’s Day with a candlelight dinner in an overcrowded Italian restaurant, in very recent history the date has become the subject of an alternative interpretation. February 14 is the focal date of playwright Eve Ensler’s V-Day 2002 College Campaign, an effort to “raise awareness and money to stop violence against women and girls.” The campaign encourages groups of college students to perform Ensler’s Obie award-winning play “The Vagina Monologues,” a verbally and at times visually explicit take on female sexuality. One school, however, seems open only to the Ensler version of February 14.
