Public health officials have called for increased use of condoms to protect Americans from sexually acquiring human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. To investigate the availability of condoms for sale on college campuses, we asked student union directors and bookstore managers from all 28 public universities in California, with a combined enrollment of half a million students, to complete a detailed questionnaire in August and September 1987. Two thirds of the campuses reported having condoms for sale in either their bookstores or convenience stores; one third said condoms were available in the men's and women's restrooms in their student unions. On most campuses, sales were instituted in the past year in response to the AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome) epidemic. However, very few campuses provided AIDS education at the point of sale, and condoms were not easily available outside of store hours. Respondents felt that the most important obstacles to increasing the distribution of condoms on campus included concern about presenting a negative image of the university and the low priority assigned to this issue by the university administration and others on campus. This study suggests that although condom availability has improved in the past year, the opportunity exists at most California public universities to increase the distribution of condoms and improve associated AIDS-related health education efforts.
公共卫生官员呼吁增加避孕套的使用，以保护美国人免受通过性行为感染人类免疫缺陷病毒（HIV）。为了调查大学校园里避孕套的销售情况，我们于1987年8月和9月请加利福尼亚州所有28所公立大学的学生会主任和书店经理填写一份详细问卷，这些大学的学生总数达50万。三分之二的校园报告称其书店或便利店有避孕套出售；三分之一的校园表示学生会的男、女卫生间有避孕套。在大多数校园里，为应对艾滋病（获得性免疫缺陷综合征）疫情，去年开始了避孕套销售。然而，很少有校园在销售点提供艾滋病教育，而且在营业时间之外不容易买到避孕套。受访者认为，在校园里增加避孕套发放的最重要障碍包括担心给学校带来负面形象，以及学校管理层和校园里的其他人对这个问题不够重视。这项研究表明，尽管去年避孕套的可获得性有所改善，但在大多数加利福尼亚州公立大学仍有机会增加避孕套的发放，并改善相关的艾滋病健康教育工作。
