Condoms are not available on the floors in
the Residence Halls because of concerns about safe
distribution of condoms. There have been incidents of
individuals tampering with condoms left out in the open on
University Residence Halls. An alternative that has been
suggested is giving the condoms to the R.A. on each floor.
However, this method would be inconvenient for both the
student needing the condom in the middle of the night and the
R.A. Additionally, Barnard College wants to encourage students
to take responsibility for planning for their sexual
activities, by not relying on others to provide condoms.
Free lubricated and non-lubricated condoms
are available in Barnard Health Services. Also, condoms will
soon be available for purchase in the vending machines of all
Barnard Residence Halls.
