Trojan just released its annual Sexual Health Report Card for colleges and universities and once again Georgetown is near the bottom of the pack.  This year we received a “GPA” of 2.13 and we’re ranked 121 out of 141 schools that participated, up three from last year.

The rankings measure the “access and availability of sexual health information and resources.”  They are based on student opinion, health center policies, availability of contraceptives and STD testing, presence of advising and support resources.

Although Georgetown is lagging in the overall rankings, our standing improves when you look at how we’re doing compared to other religious schools.  Of the 14 religiously affiliated colleges and universities that were ranked, Georgetown was the 4th highest ranked.  We are also the high ranked Catholic school on the list.

In case you don’t have enough evidence of Georgetown’s health-related failings, Trojan Condoms just released their 2009 Sexual Health Report Card and Georgetown came in a mortifying 124 out of 139. The rankings are based on the accessibility of the health center and the availability of contraceptives, STD testing, and outreach programs.

Last year we were 115 – keep it up and at this rate we could end up on the bottom ten list by next year!
