About 2 a.m. one sleepless night, sophomore Jordan Nott checked himself into George Washington University Hospital.
He was depressed, he said, and thinking about suicide.
Within a day and a half of arriving there, he got a letter from a GWU administrator saying his "endangering behavior" violated the code of student conduct. He faced possible suspension and expulsion from school, the letter said, unless he withdrew and deferred the charges while he got treatment.
In the meantime, he was barred from campus.
Niiiiiice.

And I'm sure his treatment from the school really helped his severe depression. People wonder why individuals don't get help.

Given what I've seen elsewhere on LJ today this is the beginning of an ugly trend. Really ugly.

The.
Fuck.
It's no wonder people are so secretive about having mental illnesses or suicidal thoughts.
