[quote=Anonymous]My DS the liberal arts major at TJ started having problems sophomore year. He fell down some stairs and broke his fibula first semester.  Then he developed pneumonia and missed two weeks second semester. Chemistry did not go well for him and his math teacher was sick that year and missed a lot of classes which left some serious deficiencies in the material covered and subsequent grade.  Junior year was the usual nightmare. Staying up late doing physics took a toll and then he wrecked the car, breaking his clavicle and his arm. We were ok with that because he was also suffering mental callapse which necessitated hours and thousands of dollars in therapy. He seemed so different than the boy we had known before. He was determined to finish at TJ despite our at this point desperate fears. He refused to return to his base school no matter what we said. Senior year he made it to November when he fell again and shattered his patella (knee). No more driving. We began to wonder if he had a bone problem but no just the stress. Obviously we think either TJ is not for him or it's just a toxic environment. Somehow he got into SLAC but we live in perpetual worry. Not a fan of TJ in general. [/quote]
