According to an online survey of 324 undergraduates that I conducted last semester, students at Harvard already spend seven hours a day (49 hours a week) involved in academics—including class, work and study. This is the lion’s share of daily activity for almost every student—not counting sleep, of which students report getting almost seven and a half hours a night on average...

While we’re taking back the night, let’s not leave behind the morning after. In the same UHS survey, sexually active undergraduates were asked whether they or their partner had used emergency contraception (the morning-after pill) in the past school year.

Who is to blame when this happens? Is it her deception, or his indifference? The UHS waiting room is not a place...
