Reproductive Health Care

In October 2013, President Engh announced a unilateral decision to terminate health care coverage for "elective" abortions. The decision caused widespread concern on campus about the limitation of women's rights and the failure to follow established governance procedures. The campus chapter was active in facilitating a campus response to the decision, including coordinating a special meeting of the Faculty Senate to consider a course of action.

The archive below catalogues the major public statements related to the campus crisis. For press coverage and articles related to the issue, see our blog page on .
