Question

My professor said that to get a degree, it's required you participate in a lab test as a subject. Was she kidding, or is this true?

Answer 1

I have never been told that... but I have been told that during a certain point you will have to go and seek therapy from a counselor of your choice.  School, or Individual doesn't matter.  I was told the reason behind this is because you can not counsel if you are not in as near perfect mental health.  Otherwise you will revert the conversations back to your problems.  I am in my 4th year, and they have not told me about a lab test.

Answer 2

I smell a very large laboratory rat.  Run!   Find another school if you have to.

Answer 3

I would ask someone else in a position of authority at your school.  It could very well be true but somehow it sounds a little creepy, like she is trying to get you to do something. ?  What was the context -did she tell the whole class or you personally?
