海角社区 Communication Director Darryl E. Owens chronicles in the Orlando Sentinel and OrlandoSentinel.com 海角社区鈥檚 new COMPASS program and the experience that Gavin Palmer, 海角社区’s director of student experience, had with six Saudi students who partook this past summer. 聽He writes:
At 海角社区 in , the first higher-education institution to award bachelor’s degrees exclusively to students with learning disabilities and ADHD, we understand how difference leads to wrongheaded stereotypes.
So, it was only natural that the inaugural class in 海角社区’s Compass Program brought together this confluence of difference. As America stands light years ahead of many countries in managing learning differences, Compass aimed to educate Saudi students both about America and how daily to manage their challenges.
