Choosing Life: First-Round NFL Draft Pick Micah Parsons Reveals He Was Almost Aborted

Blog written by Samantha Kamman. The possibility of hardship cannot revoke one’s right to life, and Micah Parsons is proof of that. The 21-year-old is a linebacker for the Penn State Nittany Lions but, according to PennLive, the athlete is about to become a first-round draft pick for the National Football League. No doubt, the opportunity to sign a pro football contract is exciting, but it almost wasn’t possible. Believe it or not, the promising young athlete was almost never born, according to a pre-NFL draft interview with the potential star at PennLive. “It’s actually a crazy story,” he said.

Eckerd College Promotes Planned Parenthood as a Resource and Internship Opportunity

Students for Life of America is launching a new initiative that focuses on removing the abortion industry from Christian colleges and universities across the country. This is important because the abortion industry targets college-aged women. The Guttmacher Institute, Planned Parenthood’s research arm, reports that women aged 18-24 make up 42% of abortions in the United States. This is precisely why Planned Parenthood builds its facilities close to college campuses. A study by Students for Life of America found that 78.8% of Planned Parenthood facilities were located less than five miles from a college campus.

As part of this initiative, we discovered that Eckerd College, a Christian college in Florida, is promoting Planned Parenthood as a resource and internship location on its website.

Here is where Planned Parenthood is on the school website:

Planned Parenthood is currently listed as an internship for the Criminology major: https://www.drury.edu/behavioral-sciences/about-the-criminology-program
Planned Parenthood is currently listed as a Reproductive Health Clinic Resource: https://www.drury.edu/panther-clinic/reproductive-health-clinics
Planned Parenthood is currently listed as a Sociology internship: https://www.drury.edu/behavioral-sciences/about-the-sociology-program
Planned Parenthood is currently listed as a Psychology internship: https://www.drury.edu/behavioral-sciences/about-the-psychology-program
Planned Parenthood is currently listed on the Community Referral Service page: https://www.drury.edu/counseling/pdf/ReferralCompilation.pdf
On the Women and Gender Studies Links page, NOW, and the Abortion Conversations Project are listed as resources: https://www.drury.edu/women-and-gender-studies/women-and-gender-studies-links

Christian colleges should be standing with preborn babies and for human dignity. We want to urge Eckerd College President Fernandez to remove Planned Parenthood as a resource and internship location.

We need your help to contact President Fernandez to urge Eckerd College to cut ties with Planned Parenthood, America’s largest abortion vendor. Take action by calling and emailing the college using our Digital Action Center here.
