This hits close to home. Back in the 80s, I went to one of the best school districts in Texas. Best for the typical kids that is. Kids with special needs were all thrown into special classes along with the severely retarded kids. Needless to say, this was horrible for the kids and one of them was my little brother.

We moved to a much poorer school district in southern Texas and it turned out that they had figured out how to work through dyslexia. After 2 six week terms, my brother moved to the normal classes and did awesome.

We moved back to our original school district after only a year and they changed their methods after seeing my brother again. They changed everything.

It sounds like your college was trying, but didn't quite understand. It appears that you did pretty well despite them.
