A Letter

Dear female students at the University of Wisconsin,

Your state legislature has decided that if you should get raped, your attacker’s potential progeny are more important than you are. Not only will you not have access to emergency abortifacients; you won’t even be counseled about them. Considering that one out of every four college women is raped during her university experience (and in my circle of friends, it was 50%), I’d say you might want to start filling out those transfer papers. Best of luck at your new school.

Love,
Shakespeare’s Sister
