I joined the forum about two weeks ago, but haven't had a chance to post. I was recently terminated from my Ph.D. program after investing 10 years of my life and over $100,000 in student loans. I am a student with a permanent disability and this was a huge factor in my ability to make progress. I also experienced a hostile academic climate since I returned to my program after a medical leave of absence. I am looking for an attorney, as it is so exhausting to do the things needed for my appeal of the decision and a complaint with the Office for Equal Opportunity. Any referrals or ideas?
