I mean, weight and school should be two separate things, in my opinion. I don’t understand how the university can try to stop students from graduating if they have weight “issues”.

Obesity is a pretty real problem in the black community (http://minorityhealth.hhs.gov/templates/content.aspx?ID=6456), so I guess this is the way that Lincoln's working to be apart of the solution. If they go through with implementing this program, I'd be interested to see how successful it is. Because ultimately, I think the drive to lose weight and get healthy does come from personal, intrinsic motivation...
