Georgetown should do the same with its students. Georgetown has the responsibility to provide the best health care services available to its students. Despite this obligation, the Student Health Service cannot provide condoms to students. A health center is dysfunctional if it does not provide a basic health service, such as disease prevention, especially one so important to college students. The Student Health Service must provide condoms, given the changes made in the Peer Education Program.
Life is full of difficult decisions.
But in following the hard line of the archdiocese, Georgetown neglected the real risk its students face.
