Abstract

Students at colleges and universities report high rates of mental disorders, including depression and anxiety, and frequent suicidal ideation. School policies toward such students, however, often have appeared punitive or aimed primarily at reducing the institution's potential liability. A recent lawsuit against Yale University highlighted allegations of practices that violated several federal statutes by failing to provide reasonable accommodations for students with psychiatric disabilities. The resolution of those claims in a sweeping settlement agreement can provide a model for the many other universities that need to align their policies with federal disability law.

"大学的责任"--解决校园内学生的心理健康需求。

据报告，大专院校的学生患有精神障碍（包括抑郁和焦虑）的比例很高，而且经常有自杀的念头。然而，学校对这类学生的政策往往是惩罚性的，或者主要是为了减少学校的潜在责任。最近一起针对耶鲁大学的诉讼强调了有关学校未能为精神残疾学生提供合理便利的做法违反了多项联邦法规的指控。通过一项全面的和解协议解决了这些指控，为其他许多需要将其政策与联邦残障法保持一致的大学提供了一个范例。

期刊介绍： Psychiatric Services, established in 1950, is published monthly by the American Psychiatric Association. The peer-reviewed journal features research reports on issues related to the delivery of mental health services, especially for people with serious mental illness in community-based treatment programs. Long known as an interdisciplinary journal, Psychiatric Services recognizes that provision of high-quality care involves collaboration among a variety of professionals, frequently working as a team. Authors of research reports published in the journal include psychiatrists, psychologists, pharmacists, nurses, social workers, drug and alcohol treatment counselors, economists, policy analysts, and professionals in related systems such as criminal justice and welfare systems. In the mental health field, the current focus on patient-centered, recovery-oriented care and on dissemination of evidence-based practices is transforming service delivery systems at all levels. Research published in Psychiatric Services contributes to this transformation.
