[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The closest planned parenthood to University of Idaho is  8.6 miles away in Pullam, WA.   That should be zero problem for any student with a car.
It shouldn't even be an issue for students without a car.   If they are smart enough to get into college, they should be able to figure out how to use the Uber app.  I guarantee you they have used the Uber app for many other things.

There is even a lovely bike/walking trail (Bill Chipman Palouse trail) that they can take for the majority of trip if  they prefer to bike or walk.[/quote]

Do you know many college kids? They are so busy they will uber eats when they have a dining hall three buildings away.

But that's besides the point. The barriers shouldn't be placed by a public university. The end. [/quote]

Yes I do know many college kids--including 3 of my own.   They are not particularly motivated or industrious, but wouldn't bat an eye at biking, walking, or rollerblading a distance less than 10 miles.

And "not providing on campus" is not the same thing as "placing a barrier."     One of my kid's school only sells Pepsi products on campus, not Coke.  If he wants Coke products he walks ten minutes off campus to a convenience store.   It's never occurred to me to think that the school is "placing a barrier" between my son and his favorite soft drink.[/quote]
