In an exclusive interview with Campus Reform, the former active-duty Marine who served two combat tours in Iraq said his suspension came after he requested to meet with a different counselor in the school’s Office of Counseling and Disability Services. Rawls, who is diagnosed with combat-related post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), was originally paired with a female counselor who wore traditional Muslim dress during his initial visit to the office.

According to Rawls, his attempts to meet with staff members to discuss the school’s policy about changing counselors were repeatedly ignored and it wasn’t until a recent meeting with administrators that he was able to speak with staff.
“Their response was suspending me pending a mental evaluation which I provided and then they put me on further restriction and a reintegration program,” Rawls said.

“You are not permitted to be on campus for any reason or attend class during the duration of the Interim Suspension unless you have written permission,” states an email sent to Rawls on Feb. 26 and later obtained by Campus Reform.

On March 16, Rawls was notified of his permission to reintegrate back into academics after fulfilling the school’s request for an independent mental evaluation.
“At this time, you are only allowed integration back into academics, meaning: attending class, lectures, or any other academic related matter that is pertinent to a class or graded assignment,” Ambrose wrote in a second email to the student veteran.
In addition to a provision restricting Rawls from attending on-campus events or participating in student organizations, the school’s Integration Action Plan required that he “show ability to handle [his] academic course load” and “demonstrate regular attendance in mental health therapy at a licensed therapist” of his choice.

"I won't meet with a Jew! If I have to meet with her again, I'll blow this place up!"
"Sorry, Mohammad! Sorry! It won't happen again! We fired her, don't worry."
I read the article and his request sounded perfectly reasonable to me.
If I had been in his shoes, I would have done the same thing.
Shame on his school. Shame on them. Their desire for diversity for its own sake is more important to them than the well being of a veteran who is one of their students.
Well, what would you expect from a Baptist university? He probably should transfer to a public university.

17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers’ associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture—education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
38. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand [or treat].
39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.

All is going according to plan...

I’m wondering right now how a lawsuit under the American Disabilities Act would go over?
Probably not to well I suppose. Assuming this guy is a white American veteran of an authorized American ‘war’ he probably will just be vilified and threatened with imprisonment for being such.
Obviously, he was white, because there is no way in hell they would put a POC through something like that.
Great irony and paraprosdokian!
These campuses are like Stalin-lite. Pronouncements of mental disorder for “wrong” thinking. The only thing these schools aren’t doing, yet, is having students disappeared.
You nailed it. In Murfreesboro, TN the VA hospital there has a large shrink population and a lot of mental patients. Now, they are loaded with Muslim MDs and also a number from India who also wear their native garb. I am so darn sick of our Gov not making these foreigners ASSIMILATE.
"Another day, another outrage."
Thanks for reminding everyone. People here (of all places) seem skeptical but for my money, the communists are in complete defacto control. And yes, that means Russia.
Murfreesboro is home to some super strict Southern Baptists, and the late John R. Rice’s empire. I can’t see muslims fitting in too well.
Do these people understand what PTSD is?!!!! IMHO, this man didn’t want too many reminders of the time he got shot up, struck a mine with a Humvee, or whatever it was that happened to him.
Colleges are carrying out the role of the totalitarian state. The government doesn’t have to send people to reeducation camps. Colleges do it for them.
“at Mississippi College in Clinton, Miss”
Important info to leave out.
Lawyer up and sue the school out of business. Take NO prisoners.
