According to The College Fix, “While every public higher education institution in New York is required by law to offer abortions, only nine offer prenatal care referrals.” Of these 78, City University of NY, as well as State University of NY, looked into nine that advertise referrals to the providers who offer parental care.
The National Postsecondary Student Aid study even found, according to The Fix, that more than 3,1 million undergrads are parenting, which is a shocking statistic in and of itself.
Despite this, only a few of the campus health centers in NY list support services like lactation rooms or childcare basic services for pregnant students or parents of young children.
One school, York College, offers childcare, and another, SUNY Old Westbury, advertises that they have a baby changing room.
Despite all this, none of these schools mention providing services like on-campus ultrasounds, parental care,as well as other such services. Only 9 even mention referral for these services.
Only one university, Westchester Community College, mentions on its website that it provides abortion resources, but does not provide parental care.
“Westchester Community College does not provide prenatal care on campus. The Health Services website will maintain a list of community agencies and/or providers authorized to prescribe abortion medication. Students will be referred to the Office of Accessibility Services for pregnancy or pregnancy-related accommodations,” the website states, followed by a list of local Planned Parenthood facilities and one independent abortion provider.”
On the other hand, according to The College Fix, The Fashion Institute of Technology, SUNY, which is made up of 82 percent female student body, does not mention parental care on its health services page. On the other hand, it does offer free acupuncture and massage therapy as if that’s essential health care.
As insane as all this is, perhaps even more surprising, or not surprising, being that we are talking about NY in 2023, this state passed a law that requires public colleges to provide abortion pills either at the school itself or through referrals. As crazy and evil as this sounds, it gets worse.
The law passed in NY makes unfounded claims such as abortion pills being safe for the Mother. It also differentiates this pill from the morning-after pill. The Students for Life of America rightfully said that more colleges and Universities should be providing support for pregnant and parenting students.
As to abortion pills, Students For Life is calling on the Surgeon General to include a warning about severe side effects.
Sadly, the pro-life culture has not taken over universities despite a conservative revival among Gen Z. The University remains an epicenter of liberalism and a pro-death culture.
