ABSTRACT
Students at colleges and universities report high rates of mental disorders, including depression and anxiety, and frequent suicidal ideation. School policies toward such students, however, often have appeared punitive or aimed primarily at reducing the institution's potential liability. A recent lawsuit against Yale University highlighted allegations of practices that violated several federal statutes by failing to provide reasonable accommodations for students with psychiatric disabilities. The resolution of those claims in a sweeping settlement agreement can provide a model for the many other universities that need to align their policies with federal disability law.
