Trojan Ranks UI Last In Sex Health

While the University of Idaho ranked last in a condom company's recent survey of student sexual health, school officials said Wednesday the distinction is not deserved. Greg Tatham, assistant vice provost for student affairs, said Trojan Condoms didn't get a full picture of the UI's efforts to promote safe sex. "Some of the things we got dinged for, we do on campus and they just didn't look in the right place," Tatham said. Sperling's BestPlace, the research company Trojan contracted to conduct the survey, only looked at the UI student health services website, which Tatham admitted is out of date. "They never contacted me, they never contacted our clinical director of student health," he said/Joel Mills, Lewiston Tribune. More here.

Question: Is UI's ranking re: sexual health by a condom company a good thing? Or a bad thing?
