Kimberlie, Certainly, this kind of discrimination (subtle or not) is a reality in the workplace, and it is one of the reasons that Congress passed the ADA (with it's Title I provisions regarding employment settings). I'd like to hope that for every employment setting that deals poorly with issues of disability, there is another one out there that "gets it" and that will provide opportunities to the student with a disability. And, fortunately, the student/employee only needs to find one good one! GRIN Dr. Jane Jarrow
