With advice from a lawyer-friend of the Shapiro family, Kiger, Keough, and Shapiro turned themselves in for arrest. Richard Schaeffer was apprehended and taken to a court in Chili, and actually incarcerated until members of the faculty at RIT raised money to provide bond. Elizabeth Carter vanished until she could make arrangements similar to the trio's. "We voluntarily submitted to arrest," Keough stated, "which put the ball in their court. We had done this in good faith, which threw them a little bit, so they had to release us." Kiger, Keough, and Shapiro were brought up on charges accusing them of "exhibition, display, and defiling the flag of the United States, and casting contempt on said flag in violation of Section 136, Sub-division D, of the General Business Laws of the State of New York." As for whether the RIT students who filed the charges were offended simply by the pho• tographs or by a combination of the photos and story is uncertain. Keough believes the photos were targeted because they were the easiest prey. "The bottom line is that the arrests and attacks were made on the pho• tographs because it's easier to deal with free• dom of spieech in terms of the written word," he said. "What probably offended them more than the pictures was really the written word, which they felt they couldn't deal with." When discussing the article, Shapiro explained, "It wasn't speciTically about Vietnam, it was about war in general... What we did reflected the general concerns of most colleges at the time."

Issues of Censorship provided plenty of opportunity for the maga• zine to find itself censored by the Institute. A year following the close of the Kiger, Keough, and Shapiro case. Reporter wanted to print a cover-photo of a burning American flag. The Institute refused, and the then-editor Greg Enos was forced to comply. The photo was allowed to run, only inside. In 1973. another controversial cover-photo caused the issue to be banned. The photo, that of a man and woman in bed (covered by blankets), was meant to poke fun at the "pairing" which occurs at orientation. Members of the Graphic Arts Research Center staff were responsible for taking the photo to the then-President of the Institute, Dr. Paul A. Miller. The last event, being one of a controversial string over five years, prompted Miller to create an Advisory Board to act in conjunction with Reporter, and to help avert any future mishaps between the administration and the magazine. Both sides agreed that there was no attempt at censorship of the publication. Reporter published an issue the following week.
