Fordham University's Rose Hill campus offers the least'emergency medical coverage of all metro- politan area colleges with boarder populations. This simple fact was made tragically evident last year OnTur when a physical plant worker, injured and lying unconscious in Duane Library, waited for more than one and one-half hours for an ambulance to take him to a hospital. He died the next day. The police on the scene could not even locate a stretcher on campus to transport the man to their patrol car or a physical plant van.
