Jesuit schools for non Catholics? Thoughts?

Villanova?!? You are very nearly right. next. door. to Bryn Mawr—I suspect there are enough clinics that can fill birth control prescriptions right there in the neighborhood to help anyone who needs it.

And even if there aren’t, you’re within the Philadelphia metropolitan area, which has a reasonably efficient mass transit system—and a quick search tells me that the nearest Planned Parenthood office, should she have needed it very inexpensively, is a 13-minute bus ride away with no transfers.

I mean, I get wanting everything right there on campus and such, but this isn’t a logistics problem, it’s a (perhaps better: it sounds like it’s a) wanting-something-to-whine-about problem. Also, this isn’t really all that unusual a problem, anyway—even the medium-sized public university I work at doesn’t have birth control pills available on campus (there’s no on-campus pharmacy at all), so it’s not like this is a particularly Catholic-school thing.
