| Many
college women find themselves pregnant and/or are afraid they might
be pregnant. Suddenly they are faced with life-changing decisions.
What should I do? What will my parents and friends say? What part
will other people play in decisions about what to do? Can I still
be a full-time student while pregnant? Where can I go on-campus for
help? There are no perfect answers for these questions.
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO HANDLE THESE QUESTIONS ALONE
If you are pregnant, or suspect you might be, we’d like to
encourage you to make an appointment to discuss your pregnancy
options. Both Counseling Services and Student Health Services are
willing to help each student make the decisions that best meet
her needs, values and personal beliefs. Pregnancy can result in
three outcomes: birth and parenthood, birth and adoption, and termination
of the pregnancy by abortion. Both Student Health Services and
Counseling Services have information about all three options and
are eager to work nonjudgmentally with you as you decide on the
option that is right for you.
If you are pregnant and unsure what to do and/or just need to
talk, please make an appointment at Counseling Services (515-2423)
and/or Health Services (515-7762). Our services to you are free
and confidential. Remember, you do not have to carry this situation
alone, emotional support and resources to help in decision-making
are available.
