Headline in the SF Chronicle:
Stanford is No. 1 in nation for students reporting disabilities. Why?

In the article:
38% of roughly 7,800 undergraduates in fall 2023 were registered with Stanford's Office of Accessible Education, according to the latest available data. That puts Stanford well above both the national median of 5.3% and the California median of 4%.

There was an article in the Atlantic about this - students get extended test time, flexible deadlines, and priority housing. Huge trend among elite colleges with Stanford leading the pack at 38%, Amherst at over 30%, and Brown and Harvard at more than 20%. This is versus 3 to 4% of students claiming accommodations at community colleges. It's called gaming the system.

And the rich keep buying their way into preferential treatment. I'm sure the doctors are in on it too. And the pharmaceuticals get to sell more drugs. This is no different than the athletics scandal in obscure sports about 10 years ago.

You clamp down on one loophole and they find another.

That's nothing new. We've known for years that a high percentage of Stanford students suffer from mental disabilities.

Yes and I believe snobbery was recently classified as a disability.

At Stanford humility is a disability.
