[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can we stop shaming the Aspies already? Because essentially that's what they're saying. Technically-focused neurodivergent students who may or may not be diagnosed are very valuable. Our global economy depends on innovation, and this is the cohort that drives it. The emotionally and socially connected are the glue that holds our society together, and they will always tend to be more successful in their lives, due to their superior social skills... so I don't know why we're attacking the ones that contribute to progress and are less social. On the contrary, we should be supporting them! [/quote] A school filled with them is a nightmare.[/quote] Does anyone seriously believe that duke is filled with neurodivergent students. Its reputation alone is enough to drive many away.[/quote]
