[quote=Anonymous]I went through a bout of severe depression during college. I was pretty terrible to live with. I would not want my college age student to have to live with someone suicidal, nor would I expect the university to want the liability. A place like Yale is filled with "golden children". Then you have your percentage of families who don't really believe in mental illness. There is a lot of pressure on these kids and parents to keep those kids in place rather than bring them home (imagine what you are going to have to tell friends and relatives when Larlo shows back up at home mid semester). I don't fault Yale for forcing students out so quickly. If they don't get them out immediately some may not leave.[/quote]
