If you look on FB for updates on her being missing you can find a post from her sister with some interesting updated information that will be critical to searchers. But I can't link as it's neither verified or MSM..
Just read that on her sister H's FB profile. Essential to understand how critical it is to find her asap. Jmoo.
 
Rucker is student housing for Georgetown College. they are townhouse style apartments that can house six people. All students are eligible for Rucker Village, with priority given to upperclassmen. Hambrick and Rucker

According to the academic calendar, December 5 was the last day, with December 6 being a "reading day". Then the next week was finals. Georgetown PDF

how was she doing in college? Age 21 would put her as a senior if she started right away and was graduating on time. But she left the day after class ended and skipped her final?

If she is in need of mental health professionals, wouldn't that make her endangered, regardless of whether she left on her own? It almost sounds as if LE isn't ruling self-harm out but has simply chosen to stop devoting resources to Emma's case.

No, it doesn't. There are a lot of people who have mental health professionals in their lives who are fully functional and would not harm themselves. There are a lot of people in therapy dealing with things like stress at work or school, or divorce, or grief for a loved one who are not at risk of self-harm. We have no idea what Emma's situation was. For all we know, she told people she wanted to leave for one reason or another or that she wanted certain people out of her life and that's what law enforcement is going by. We just don't know.

I think you mistook what I'm trying to say. Millions of Americans have a therapist or take psych meds for whatever reason and are no risk of harm to themselves. If those millions of Americans went missing voluntarily, LE wouldn't consult "mental health professionals" because it simply wouldn't be necessary. So the very fact that LE chose to consult mental health professionals is IMO in itself concerning.
