College graduates do not have to know how to read today.

It is acceptable for a diagnosed adult to receive help in various areas and to be encouraged by special benefits that are not given others. This is not seen as strange by other college students. To the contrary, they accept these differences among the other adults.

However, it does raise certain questions. When an adult who can read successfully and independently graduates together with an adult who cannot read in dependently or successfully and they both receive comparable grades - good grades - one begins to question the value of the degree.

Are you sure that you want to go to a physician who cannot read the information on the label independently? The degree on that physician's wall - does it represent a physician who has a disability and therefore went through the system without having to meet various requirements? Or is it a person who has indeed passed all of the requirements?

Today everyone has the right to be a professional in the area of their choice.

On the one hand this perhaps is good for the individual.

On the other hand we may question the value of their degree as patients of these people who really have not met the requirements that others have met.

This is an important issue for us to consider, as patients.

Or as victims.
