This isn’t compassion—it’s exploitation. Nearly 40% of Stanford undergrads now claim a disability, unlocking perks like prime housing, note-takers, private testing rooms, excused absences, and even exemptions from class participation. At elite schools, gaming the system has become the norm—and students admit you’d be “stupid” not to do it.
Meanwhile, community colleges report just 3%. Same country. Very different incentives.
When accommodations turn into advantages, life skills disappear and accountability erodes. This may work on campus—but it doesn’t translate to the real world or the workplace.
