Some Belated CalStuff Spring Break Health Advice
I ran across a slightly funny, and probably topical e-mail included on the Blogmaster's site:

The other problem, and the part that annoys me with this ad, is it encourages unprotected sex. This is true of many methods but the whole pitch here is act stupidly and then take this [morning after pill] and fix it. Okay but what about the rest of the problems? One college clinic I know of spends spring break stocking up for what is unofficially and politically incorrectly called STD week. Following spring break, they see more STDs than in the rest of the semester. A lot of people come home from spring break with more souvenirs than they realized. STDs are a bigger issue than we admit: 30-50% of sexually active young women have one. The military has 10% of female recruits have untreated Chlamydia. Pushing the morning after pill like that is medically irresponsible as it encourages risky behavior. After all some STDs are forever. Getting knocked up is not the only issue.

Use a rubber, folks. You'll be glad you did.

This advice probably applies to Berkeley men moreso than at other places, because the rapid shift in location as people venture throughout the world for spring break, and the corresponding change in the attractiveness of the surrounding women, probably leads to a disproportionate share of random hooking up from Berkeley males. Consider yourself warned.
