Carleton University comes under heavy criticism after gym scale removed - Ottawa - CBC News

'"Next it will be the mirrors. #bringbackthescale," wrote one Carleton student on Facebook, while another said online, "Are you for real, Carleton?'

'Carleton University is feeling the burn from students on social media for removing a weight scale from its gym to promote a more holistic approach to a healthy body image. '

'In 2015, gym staff at the California State University removed its weight scales from locker rooms for one day in honour of National Eating Disorder Awareness Week. '

'The scale was removed two weeks ago "in keeping with current fitness and social trends," Marshall explained in his email. '

'Aidan Patten, a 21-year-old Carleton music student, said the scale controversy is generating some heated debate among his friends. '
