Report Suspected Mental Problem or Not?

[Dale00]

One of my kids is home from college for Thanksgiving and tells me that there is a student in one of her classes who is very cold, rude and in general creeps people out. He is the top student in the class, in a very demanding major.

I have to worry that this guy could be another Colorado movie theater shooter. He seems to fit the "profile."

Here's the dilemma - Should my daughter report him to the school psychologist or not? I hate the idea of people reporting on each other to the "thought police" and I believe that people have the right to be a jerk. On the other hand, I worry about my daughter being in a class with someone who might flip out.

Well what has the guy done to be "suspected" of anything other than focusing on his work and being rude?

Cold,. rude, top student in the class. Does he wear specticles? Does he have clean finger nails?

Tell her to follow her gut. And sit close to the exit farthest from him.

Eliminate the intellectuals.

Only the rude creepy ones.

If it weren't for the intellectual part, I might have to worry.

WWRLD.

Is he a quiet guy? Kind of keeps to himself? Those are the ones you have to watch...
