SHS Is Making Us Call Them Every Time We Want More Drugs

Pill poppers, beware! As of January 1 of this year, SHS will no longer respond to automatic refill requests from pharmacies. 

What does this mean, you ask? If you run out of refills on your prescription, you now have to take precious seconds out of your day to message or call SHS to get your meds, pending delivery of course. According to the DP, the policy is supposed to “force students to be more responsible for keeping track of the statuses of their prescriptions.” Personal responsibility? As if.

With the raging Chipotle-E. Coli epidemic on the loose, we would have thought that SHS would have bigger fish to fry than the threat of young people getting their pharmaceuticals in a timely manner. TBH, we just miss the good old days where SHS existed peacefully a million miles away, only coming out of hiding to hand us free condoms.
