Birthing the Pill at the University of Vermont (1970-1976)
Christmas, William A.; Schultz, J. Donald
Journal of American College Health, v57 n3 p352-356 Nov-Dec 2008
The introduction of the birth control pill in 1960 precipitated 2 decades of intense social change in the United States, particularly in the area of sexuality. Colleges and universities were not immune to these changes. The author examines the struggles at 1 land-grant university to find common ground on this issue among students, faculty, administrators, and trustees between 1970 and 1976.
