Emotional Support Animals On The Rise At Yale
2018-04-27
The wussification of America continues unabated.
[Yale Daily News] - If you walked into the Grace Hopper College courtyard last year, you may have seen a cat on a leash. Last fall you might have seen a dog; this semester, there are two of them scurrying around Hopper.

These are emotional support animals. While Yale College does not allow students to live with pets on campus, University Policy 4400 allows students to live with emotional support animals, also called assistance animals, "on a case-by-case basis in a reasonable accommodation for a documented disability."

Last year, there was one registered support animal on Yale’s campus, a kitten named Sawa. There are now 14 ‐ a number that Sarah Chang, associate director of the Resource Office on Disabilities, expects to rise.

#1  Emotional Support Bryozoa. Quieter than cats or dogs, especially nice if you're trying to study.

Squids are nice, too......
