The article discusses the rise in mental health diagnoses and disability accommodations among students at elite universities, driven by expanded diagnostic criteria and incentives for overdiagnosis. It highlights how increased mental health awareness and subjective psychiatric assessments have led to a significant increase in students obtaining accommodations, often for conditions that may not be genuine disabilities. Experts warn that this overdiagnosis dilutes resources, fosters a cycle of competitive over-accommodation, and blurs the line between normal developmental struggles and clinical mental illness.
