All I have to do is see a yahoomail, aol, or hotmail email address, and my blood pressure literally starts to rise. Thank God I have low blood pressure, naturally.
GEEZE. Now, that's bad. Do we know what happened to the poor student, who among all the parties involved, was the one most shafted?

The student now has a good job where he has worked for many years. His speech impediment has gotten much better but his very limited mobility has not.
He was born with limited use of his left hand. That is his ability. He also finally got a service dog.
The college should not have let him try for a business degree. Let's just say because he was very special education, the public school district he went to didn't teach him anything.
The first class I worked with him in was EXCEL. The poor student could not even do simple subtraction. That left me in tears. Yes, I made him try.
He wanted helpers that would do the work for him.
