Dear Glenn,

I believe you ae absolutely right about meeting the immediate needs of the learner.  I have never heard someone express this, though. I am assuming, though I could be wrong, that the potential student coems to the program BECAUSE of a need;  is this your understanding? Thanks for putting this issue in perspective.

The difficulty with accommodations is that a diagnosis comes first, and not all programs can afford the diagnosis.  Do you have any ideas for how to get  out of this dilemma?

Andrea
