LOS ANGELES -- NBC 7/39's sister station in Los Angeles reported that the Web page of a USC professor is causing concern because of several photos posted on it.

Dr. Diana York Blaine is a professor of Women's Studies and a self-described "philosopher, writer, adventurer, and buttkicker."

NBC Los Angeles reported that Blaine's personal Web site includes a trio of topless photos of the professor. A university spokesperson was caught off-guard when asked about Dr. Blaine's pictorial and forwarded NBC Los Angeles a copy of the university policy.

The USC Web policy stated, "The content of individual Web pages is primarily a matter of free speech and academic freedom that must be protected in a university environment.

"The University will not be held responsible for the content of personal Web pages. Personal Web pages shall not imply that they are representing or speaking on behalf of the University."

NBC Los Angeles reported that USC did not say if there was a code of conduct for its professors that extended beyond this policy, but school officials said they would be looking into the matter further.
