Paper Summary:

This paper tries to find a viable solution to the current prohibition of pets being allowed in student's dorm rooms on university campuses. It examines each of the classic arguments against the allowing of pets - allergies by other students, phobias of different types of animal, safety (against attack), health risks, noise and liabilities. The writer attempts to solve each of these problems in order to create a new policy relating to pets on campus.

From the Paper:

"For most freshmen, the start of college means leaving home. And leaving home also means leaving home a treasured friend. That friend may be a gerbil, cat, dog, or iguana. These are the best types of friends because they do not judge. They give unconditional love and able to comfort without saying a word. Sometimes, you just want comfort."
