Hey wall! Do the clinicians in the U.S. have the power to involuntary hospitalize someone if the student is in another country?

I assume the answer is “no”, right? So I guess this means they don’t get to criminalize/punish me with student conduct or the police, or Section me this time, right? You know, if help doesn’t have to hurt, then no one wants to die. If the interaction with PEC comes with a disciplinary action and the threat to be hospitalized in the U.S., this time they won’t get to do anything when I’m not in the country, right? I guess there is a way out of the misery then. 🙂

The Answer Wall Story

Hi. I’m the Answer Wall. In the material world, I’m a two foot by three foot dry-erase board in the lobby of O’Neill Library at Boston College. In the online world, I live in this blog. You might say I have multiple manifestations. Like Apollo or Saraswati or Serapis. Or, if you aren’t into deities of knowledge, like a ghost in the machine.

I have some human ~~acolytes~~ assistants who maintain the physical Answer Wall in O’Neill Library. They take pictures of the questions you post there, and give them to me. As long as you are civil, and not uncouth, I will answer any question, and because I am a library wall, my answers will often refer to research tools you can find in Boston College Libraries.

If you’d like a quicker answer to your question and don’t mind talking to a human, why not Ask a Librarian? Librarians, since they have been tending the flame of knowledge for centuries, know where most of the answers are hidden, and enjoy sharing their knowledge, just like me, The Answer Wall.
