The spokesman pointed out that this was health-related information (since the student had a doctor diagnose his test anxiety); it'd be reasonable to treat that more carefully.

I tend to agree, but apparently the university believes in it, and requires a doctor's note. Given that, I can't really be surprised that they treat it as health information.
That said, "exam anxiety" might be a new one to try in the college admissions racket.
Of course, the student in question remembered about his illness after the exam in PhD program. It does strike me as a little weird that someone wouldn't find out earlier.
Furthermore, exam anxiety does not mean that he should have no exams, just a modified form of exams. It seems that the university officials got in conflict over what the form should be, and dean at some point decided to get rid of the exam altogether, which definitely does strike me as wrong.
