News Briefs Nebraska Wesleyan Administrators Veto Condoms in Vending MachinesDecember 6, 2002 A note from TheBody.com: Since this article was written, the HIV pandemic has changed, as has our understanding of HIV/AIDS and its treatment. As a result, parts of this article may be outdated. Please keep this in mind, and be sure to visit other parts of our site for more recent information! The administrative council of Nebraska Wesleyan University in Lincoln on Monday voted to reject a plan to make condoms available in residence hall vending machines, according to Sara Boatman, vice president for student affairs. That leaves in place a policy that provides condoms through the student health center and women's resource center. Last month, members of the Student Affairs Senate voted 29-10 to recommend expanded access to condoms in the dorms. "I feel like the student senate did what they needed to do for the students and the administration did what they needed to do for the university," said Whitney Livingston, a junior from Lincoln and the senate president. Three years ago, the student senate passed a bill to put five condom machines on campus, but administrators vetoed the plan after studying campus opinion for several months.
