From the Vancouver, CA Sun:
19-year stay at UVic residence to end todayProbably votes liberal. Dude needs to man up and get on with his life and not be trying to spend it with people 20 years younger than himself. PTSD and OCD are just made-up "complications" for most people. I know people with PTSD and this doesn't sound like PTSD to me -- sounds like lazy.
Alkis Gerd'son is expected to move today out of University of Victoria residence, a place he has called home for nearly 20 years.
"He has found some off-campus housing and he's agreed he'll vacate the university residence by noon," said Kim Hart Wensley, UVic associate vice-president of faculty relations and academic administration.
UVic has been trying to get Gerd'son to move out for years. The matter has been the focus of hearings in B.C. Supreme Court and the B.C. Human Rights Tribunal.
Gerd'son moved into residence in 1991 and obtained his degree but never left. He has not taken classes since 1997.
The human rights tribunal has not made a decision, but Gerd'son appears to be complying with the court-ordered eviction. He suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder.
