Notoriously bad. But I will speak only to my own most recent experiences: I went to Gannett at the age of 30 (I am a graduate student) because I had a yeast infection after having unprotected sex. (The doctor lectured me about my decision, saying, "You are here to study. Not to get pregnant." Again. I am THIRTY! But it didn't even occur to the doctor to ask if I was in a long term relationship and/or trying to have a child. They simply told me that, because I am a student, I am not allowed to have one. If this how Gannett infantilizes adult women I shudder to think how they treat 18 year olds.
