'''Finding.''' This is a lead entry for an email chain dated May 26 to 27, 2026 documenting several concurrent issues, tracked separately as {{HU|HU-132a}} (Dr. Powell declined to include Student A and Student AA in a group meeting because they are not in her region, fragmenting three online students with the same problem into parallel conversations with different administrators), {{HU|HU-132b}} (the reporter documented that affected students are crying, having panic attacks, and struggling to stay in school, establishing mental-health harm), {{HU|HU-132c}} (a reported instance of an advisor being disrespectful to one of the other students by phone), and {{HU|HU-132d}} (a referenced prior-term harassment of the reporter by the Director of Nursing at his clinical hospital). The reporter also stated that students lose points or fail for late work while the university does not reciprocate with timely placement. A meeting with Dr. Powell was scheduled for May 28, 2026. See each sub-issue for full evidence and standards.

'''Notes.''' Student A and Student AA are identified students with parallel clinical-placement issues. The advisor disrespect ({{HU|HU-132c}}) and prior clinical-site harassment ({{HU|HU-132d}}) are the reporter's accounts, documented as POSSIBLE pending verification.
