Shippensburg University is offering Plan B in its health care center vending machines, along with condoms and pregnancy kits.
Vice President for Student Affairs Roger Serr says the machine was installed following a request from the school’s Student Association and a survey found 85 percent of student respondents supported it.
Plan B is available without a prescription to anyone 17 or older.
The cost of the drug isn’t covered or subsidized by the school. Instead it is supplied for $25, the school’s cost to the pharmaceutical company and less than at off-campus pharmacies.
