If a student has had a catastrophic experience, a tragedy, an emotional upheaval that leaves that student unable to physically sit through
class, has not slept in over 18 hours, is unable to complete course
work, and/ or does not feel prepared for the next
day's assignment(s)/assessment(s), a student may ask to be counseled-out and counselors may counsel a student out of
class; they may also discuss the possibility of the student’s going to the Clinic, going home, or some other means by which to handle the situation.
"Kevin, I can't counsel you out again unless you'
re on fire. Do you understand that?"
"Um
yeah, I just counseled-out of 18 classes. God I hate
second trimester."
