[nagdu] ESA dogs allowed on college campuses

[Steven Johnson]

Actually, this is not an ADA issue, but rather a Fair Housing issue, and
there is an allowance for EMA's in both private and public housing.  So,
great job to the U for allowing this.  It's amazing the # of students on a
given campus who live with some level of mental health disabilities where an
animal could be highly beneficial.

Well, I could be wrong about this, and I likely am, but it's my
understanding that the ADA doesn't consider emotional support animals to be
service animals in the legal sense.  If that's the case, can they really do
that?

Hi all. 
The university I attend is passing a policy that allows emotional support
animals to be living in on campus housing. 
The only reason I am not thrilled with this change is because we as a
university have had no less than five dog fights on campus in the last year
alone. All of these fights have been between a service dog and an esa. 
What do you guys think of this?
