Grace, I hope you understand WHY the law says what it does. It isn't just a regulatory requirement. The purpose behind the rules regarding restrictive advising (and refusing admission to students because of disability) is to make sure that students with disabilities are not excluded from opportunities because of someone's *perception* of what they can or should be able to do. I am all for being "honest" so long as we recognize that what you honestly see as a barrier may not be perceived that way by the student. Dr. Jane Jarrow
