Two Carnegie Mellon students who marched nude reach deal to have charges dropped

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: A Carnegie Mellon University student who dressed as a naked pope and another who portrayed a naked astronaut during an on-campus art parade in April will have their indecent-exposure charges withdrawn so long as they each complete 80 hours of community service.
The agreement, struck by CMU, the district attorney's office and the students, was "a great result" for Katherine B. O'Connor, 19, and Robb S. Godshaw, 22, who had been scheduled for preliminary hearings Monday morning, said attorney Jon Pushinsky, who represented Ms. O'Connor on behalf of the American Civil Liberties Union.
