If a student's life goal doesn't include, particularly at this point in his life, being healthy, what business is it of the faculty? They're there to guide, not to indoctrinate.
But the ditzoid who doesn't bother to ensure she meets graduation requirements hasn't learned spit, and needs to learn a little personal responsibility.

What if my "goals" for earning a literature degree did not include any British Literature, say from . . . oh just throwing out 1750-1950. Should I have been eligible to opt out of those two courses?
Let's not pretend that the college doesn't already do this in dozens of other areas, ranging from residence life to diploma requirements. Schools already require physicals and certain inoculations. What's so different about fat content? Hurt feelings? That seems . . . poor.
