O knihe

Though diagnosed with autism at age two, Trey Hammond is determined young man. With the encouragement of his parents, attorney Claude E Hammond and pediatric dentist Chris J Baker, Trey graduated from high school with honors.

But Trey wasn't finished yet. Even though his parents had planned for him to attend a community college in their hometown of Lexington, Kentucky, he had other plans. Trey had decided to attend East Texas Baptist University in Marshall, Texas -- it was the only college to which he applied.

Trey's attendance at ETBU was his first experience living and studying independently. Known for its rigorous academics, ETBU had never had a student with a diagnosis of autism. Both Trey and the University had a ""learning curve"" on new techniques and methods effective with students who have developmental delays.

Thanks to encouragement from his family and key ETBU faculty and staff, Trey graduated cum laude from ETBU. This book describes Trey's path to academic success.
