A few days after the Dobbs ruling, a handful of student activists from Barnard College and Columbia University met with an administrator to make the case that medication abortion should be made available on campus.
A few days after the Supreme Court’s Dobbs ruling, a handful of student activists from Barnard College and Columbia University logged on to a Zoom call. They were members and supporters of a group called the Reproductive Justice Collective, who were meeting for the first time with Marina Catallozzi, a professor of pediatrics at Columbia’s Irving Medical Center, and Barnard’s inaugural vice-president of health and wellness. The students wanted to push R.J.C.
Catallozzi’s image popped up. An open-faced woman in her fifties, she was wearing silver hoops and tortoiseshell glasses. “Hi, sorry about that,” she said. “I just finished meeting with patients. I apologize!” Alyssa Curcio, a law student, piped up. “There’s a lot of harassment at the clinics now,” she said. “Even if you can say, ‘There are clinics however many miles off campus, and you can take the subway,’ what people don’t realize is the high emotional toll of being yelled at, of having fake escorts come and try to divert you.
