[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder how much of this is intended to prevent mentally ill students from shooting up the school. If Seung-Hui Cho had been forced to go on leave, maybe a lot of VT kids would still be alive. “Cruel” policies of forcing the mentally ill to leave serves to protect other students.[/quote] Maybe. There has to be something in between making a student sign paperwork that they are withdrawing while doing a FaceTime call with a dean in a hospital bed and doing nothing. No one here is suggesting that any university take a hands off approach. What jumped out for me was how awful the process was to get back in once you’re in a better place. At one point Yale was charging an application fee to apply for readmission!?!? WTH? [/quote]
