This is an outstanding NPR news article about Roger, an 18 year old student with autism, ADHD, and chronic depression, who is entering the University of Wisconsin as a freshman this month. His mother and his family provided and are providing all sorts of supports for him, and now he will be basically on his own - a great example of how secondary transition can work for students with disabilities. Please send it on to colleagues who would find it useful. You can down load and listen to the pod cast if you like. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=94429083 Thanks, John John D.
