Georgetown Law Students Demand Exam Policy Reform
Georgetown University faced backlash after initially denying a pregnant law student, Brittany Lovely, accommodations for her exam schedule. Following public outcry and a petition, the university reversed its decision, allowing Lovely to take her exam early or defer it. However, Lovely and fellow students argue that Georgetown's policies on accommodations remain inadequate and call for broader reforms to ensure fair treatment for all students needing academic adjustments. The incident highlights ongoing concerns about the university's approach to disability and pregnancy-related accommodations.
