As a current MS student in my last year at Loyola University of Maryland, I am very disheartened to hear that there is even a consideration to provide special privileges to counselors who attended a school with a different accreditation. Students who have attended many years of schooling and spent a tremendous amount of time and heart into their work are being mistreated simply because they did not attend a CACREP approved school? This matter is clearly political and business driven, which has no place in our field of serving others on a humanistic level.  Please do not harm our fellow counselors who have worked so hard to get where they are with their only goal in mind to serve our communities. Let us do our job and serve others despite  "CACREP" seal. I know this can seem as a challenging issue considering the headquarters in in Richmond, VA. However,  my fellow counselors/ therapists/ practitioners and I humbly ask you to let us do our jobs, help others, and treat us all equally. Equality is vital in our profession, it is the core of our profession and our ethical standards.
