American society is at the point where if you don't play these sort of games/tricks, you'll get out-competed by those who do. Bleak.

Thats true, but I think the blame is more on "American society" and not the kids working through the system.

50 years ago, college was cheaper. From what I understand getting jobs if you had a college degree was much easier. Social media didn't exist and people weren't connected to a universe of commentary 24/7. Kids are dealing with all this stuff, and if requesting a "disability accommodation" is helping them through it, that seems fine?

Failing out of college can be life-ruining. Tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars of high-interest non-dischargeable debt and employment opportunities completely nuked.
