Happy February!
In my last post, I wrote about all the super resources we have on campus that can help you lead a healthy student life. This week, I decided to investigate another great resource on campus - the Sexual Education Centre (SEC)! The SEC is located at the Sussex Clubhouse and if you didn't already know, is famous for its nearly infinite supply of free condoms.
The door to the SEC office is open to all students on campus, undergrad and graduate!
This was essentially the sole fact I knew about SEC before I visited. What I found was that while the office did indeed boast of an incredible quantity and variety of condoms (see the “menu”), it also contained a wide array of resources and supports for all things related to sex, sexuality, and relationships.
I quote directly one of the centre's volunteers: “For 50cents of your annual student fees you can get an infinite amount of condoms.”
My welcome to the centre was quite positive. I was greeted by a number of smiling faces when I walked in, supplied with a wealth of information during my visit, and seen off with a “grab bag” filled with safer-sex products. The centre is open Monday – Friday, 10 am – 7pm, during the Fall/Winter semesters, and everyone is welcome.
Feeling down in the dumps? Needing something exciting to help you get through this semester? Well folks, I have a series of events that are for you! This year, as what has become an annual tradition for the Sexual Education…
McGill has its Playboy-ranked party school reputation. Western has its strippers unfathomable acts of promiscuity. Queen's has its infamous Homecoming craze. York, Ryerson and OCAD have their fair share of hot 'n' bothered bodies. And U of T has...Canada's answers…
This week is 'Sexual Awareness Week' at U of T. We have a Sexual Awareness Week! :O Well, see... I went to a Catholic High School, despite not being Catholic, so I never had condoms handed to me upon entering…
