...standard-sized, individually wrapped condom of the kind put in dispensers in Canaday, Weld, and Greenough last spring measures 2 inches by 2 inches and is about a quarter-inch thick. Usually made of latex or occasionally polyurethane, the modern condom can stretch to 800 percent its normal size, if necessary—both a prophylactic and a practical joke waiting to happen. As a method of birth control, it boasts a 98 percent success rate, and when used to protect against STDs, one incurs less than a quarter of the risk one might incur through unprotected sex.

...Brad Pitt, the documentary chronicles health challenges from around the world. From clips of a girl named Raquel in Peru, who lives with a drug-resistant strain of tuberculosis and will not kiss her son for fear of infecting him, to Mechai in Thailand, who single-handedly distributes condoms in brothels across the country to slow the progression of AIDS, making condom balloons along the way.

Perhaps that, more than how to give to-die-for head or what ribbed condom to choose, is the lesson to be drawn from Sex And The Ivy: Even if few of us are inclined to such public honesty, we can at least admit our dissatisfaction privately. Harvard is famed as an intellectual and inspirational paradise, where like-minded young leaders of the future mingle. There is immense pressure to love and appreciate every minute of it. We would all do better to question the rosy path that leads us out of here to a life of conventional success, even...
