Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 2861253, member: 405"] It took my daughter six years to complete her Associates Degree at OCC. First, she had to take a couple courses to demonstrate that she could do the necessary reading and writing at a college level, which we had to pay for, but were for no credit. Then, we paced her efforts, taking only 3 classes per semester. In all that time, the Dept. for Disability Services did nothing for her - zero. We didn't know that we could have note takers for classes, extended time and quiet places for her to take exams, etc. We didn't even find any of this stuff out until about the middle of year 3, when the Disability Services supervisor tried to get her kicked out of school for being disruptive in class by asking too many questions. Higher education is truly awful these days. Of course, so is "lower" education, too. [/QUOTE]
