If they thought she was too skinny, they definitely

would have had a problem with me. When I was in undergrad, I was 5'8" and 105 lbs.
Naturally thin Yale student 'forced to stuff her face with Cheetos and ice cream' because school officials who thought she had eating disorder threatened to expel her over 90lbs frame
Frances Chan, who is 5'2" and weighs 90lbs, claims she's been force feeding herself Cheetos and ice cream in an attempt to add flesh to her tiny frame after the Ivy League school became convinced she was suffering from an eating disorder.
Chan said the New Haven, Connecticut, college wouldn't even let up when her parents confirmed she, and the rest of her family, had always been naturally skinny and even sent in childhood medical records and had their doctor contact the school.
t felt really bad to be this powerless,' Chan told the New Haven Register. 'I ate ice cream twice a day. I ate cookies. I used elevators instead of walking up stairs. But I don't really gain any weight.' She said the battle over her weight began in September when she noticed a lump in her breast and went to get it checked out.
The lump came back benign, but Yale doctors called her in for a follow up appointment because they had other 'concerns.' In the meeting, they told her she was dangerously underweight and imposed mandatory weekly weigh-ins as well as sessions with a mental health professional and a nutritionist. Chan tried to comply with the school's request and put on weight but she only managed to gain two pounds.

Not having an eating disorder is probably best for people.
How long has the "war on drugs" been going on. Last I checked that was a conservative war, and it's all about knowing "what's best for others".

So the left and the right both do it?

It just depends on the cause? That was my point.

The war on drugs is about money.

I suppose the war on poverty is too, since it's not helping anyone but politicians and bureaucrats.

Both sides think they know what is best for people and both sides will try and push their agenda, it's not just "liberals" or "conservatives" it's everyone.

I'm just "spinning" it like you did. Trouble is, you didn't

expect it and, were not prepared to defend your spin.
I've said, many times, I hate both sides of government. The difference is that you think conservatives, in government, are conservative.

why they would expel her even if she really had an eating disorder. Does Yale expel obese people? Alcoholics?

weight either. Wouldn't that be a good indicator?
On the flip of that, the girl should have just had a weight gainer or whey protein shake every night. That's the only thing that worked for me.
