The Contra Costa Times San Francisco Bay Area newspaper
( www.contracostatimes.com )*
ran an article , June 26th written by Jackie Burrell
about a program at the University of California at Berkeley to help college-attending Aspies and other AS succed in college .
Maybe it's too late for me Crying or Very sad ?
I'm old , of course .
Nobody will help me with trying to get into college .
Crying or Very sad
*-Note: I have VERY!!!!!!!!! limited time & options & skills as far as working on computers , I'M TOO POOR TO OWN ONE , and I just don't have time to do a direct link , I've given you the newspaper's link , and the date and the byline of the piece , that should get you there easily enough .

Nice find ASS-P, it's good to see progress being made by the normally intractable world of academia. You still have about 20 or so years of working time left, especially as the retirement age is being pushed back, so don't despair yet Wink
