Condom labels cause concern
By Michael J. Wilczek
P& the i">#gon O&tty f. fttomki
Condom labeling has caused
some students to be confused
over the safety of condoms found
in campus vending machines.
Students seeing dates as early
ns I'lHH on condoms front send
ing machines had believed they
were expired The dates were
actually for manufacturers, not
expiration
Students in the dormitories
brought the problem to the atten
tion of Jeff Beaty, a former floor
representative and University
Housing resident
"Considering the danger of
AIDS." Beaty said. "I was
shoe ked that they (the Universi
ty) would promote i ondoms and
safe sex while having out-of-date
condoms available to students "
Students have cause for con
fusion Condom labeling is not
uniform Some condoms c arrv
expiration dates, and others max
give dates of manufacture
Only (ondoms coated with the
spermicide Nonoxvnol-fl are
required by the Food and Drug
Administration to carry an expi
ration date because the spermi
cide breaks down after three
years.
The FDA requires condom
manufacturers only to give a lot
number for condoms not using
the spermicide However, most
producers mark par kaging with
a manufacturing dale so con
sumers know how long a condom
has been sitting on the* shelf
