How do you handle the "choice" question, and the demand for more condoms in the bathrooms, and free needles in the student health center?

LOL! I'm getting a headache here. Let's see...

1) I have not been asked about my position on abortion, although a select few students are aware I'm pro-life from statements I've made in class previously.

2) Yes, Columbia does hand out free condoms to students (ain't liberal schools wonderful?) Most students don't bother to take them and they sit in the plastic containers at the Student Activities Office all day. Since no student bothered to support them or insist that I do, I will probably eliminate this "service" if elected and still be fulfilling my campaign pledge.

3) Despite our rapidly growing size, we have no student health center. In fact, we don't even have a campus nurse. I have been asked about this and I responded that I would support the idea of having a full time nurse on campus, along with my idea of having a full-time campus minister. On the other hand, I also made it clear that this would not be possible until we cut most of the pork from the college budget and force the adminstration to stop wasting money on cushy stuff for themselves (like our college President's new $1.35 million campus "residence" for himself)
