Diagnosed with Asperger's.  Gifted in Math.  Interested in Astronomy and physics.

Nice to know some people aren't messed over by the system.

"We have told him that after this semester . . . enough of the book work. You are here to do some science," said IUPUI

Wow, he's lucky to have parents who encouraged his endeavors.

Yes, it is.

They were really worried about the autism/asperger's diagnosis, which probably motivated them to really help him out.
