In today’s day and age, there is uber, zip cars, friends with cars, taxis, etc… If you are so sick that you can’t use any of the above options, there is 911.
At Purdue, there is also an active group of “Townie Moms” who will go pick up your sick kid and take them to urgent care or the ER (and stay with them until family arrive if they need it). Wonder if other schools have groups like that?
I look at college health services as being the equivalent of a doctor’s office, not a hospital.
