Boston College scolded a student group earlier this month, threatening to take disciplinary action after the group handed out condoms on campus. According to the Boston Globe, a number of catholic universities across the nation—including D.C.'s Georgetown University and the Catholic University of America—are supporting Boston College's actions.
You'd think they were selling drugs:
Catholic universities across the United States say they would tell student groups distributing condoms on campus to stop and would potentially threaten disciplinary action, just as Boston College did earlier this month.
While frustrating, this isn't surprising. As DCist pointed out, the availability of condoms on Georgetown's campus isn't a new issue, and Catholic is convinced that single-sex dorms will stop students from having sex. Neither are a sign of the times.
