"Something I found odd was the quote from the Pomona dean. “At Pomona, we have extremely talented bright students with very high expectations who are coming in with a good level of anxiety and are highly stressed,” says Jan Collins-Eaglin, the Claremont, Calif., college’s associate dean of students for personal success and wellness. “Our job here is to help them really thrive.”
I found that odd too, highly stressed kids at selective schools like Pomona are probably 80% of the population, so giving them accommodations like you wold someone who’s been on an IEP/504 plan in middle and/or HS would violate the spirit of what the ADA was trying to accomplish, unless it was a diagnosed anxiety/depression issue. I could understand offering counseling or other services as they adjust to college, but not extra time on tests.
