Had a fellow student at Denver U. who was also getting an advanced degree in Librarianship and Information Management.
She required other students to keep an open seat next to her because she had a "friend" who was visiting with her on and off. No one else could see this "friend" but her.
Never heard if she ever got a job but I will bet she did get her Ph.D. in Librarianship as even if she was certifiable in one respect (mental health); she was more certifiable in yet another (the $ she would pay to get her Ph. D degree). She was not a danger to anyone nor to herself.
Of course, none of us fellow students were brave enough to test the theory of her harmlessness by sitting in the seat she insisted was already occupied.
