Return to Story IndexDOGS IN COLLEGE DORM
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT SAYS FRESHMEN WHO ARE SUFFERING SEPARATION ANXIETY SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO HAVE EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMALS IN THEIR DORMS. THIS DECISION COMES AFTER THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT SUED THE UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA..... ON THE BEHALF OF STUDENT BRITTANY HAMILTON. SHE WANTED TO HAVE HER FOUR-POUND DOG IN HER APARTMENT... CLAIMING THE DOG EASES HER ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION. UNLESS THE SCHOOL MAKES A DEAL WITH THE GOVERNMENT, THE CASE WILL BE HEADING TO TRIAL SOON. SOME COLLEGES HAVE BEEN EASING PET POLICIES OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS. GOOD LUCK STUDYING, WITH THE DOG NEXT DOOR, BARKING!
