began this controversy by sending letters to Virginia's public colleges
and universities asking them to stop making emergency contraception available
to students through their campus health centers.
(The schools contacted
include - the University of Virginia, Virginia Tech, James Madison University,
William & Mary, Longwood, Old Dominion University, George Mason University,
Mary Washington, Radford, and Virginia Commonwealth University) Specifically,
Marshall advocated that the dispensing of emergency contraception, a.k.a.
