Blind Since Birth Receives Degree at IIT

He ranked fourth in a class of 380 graduates for intellectual attainment, with four B grades in an otherwise A average despite optic nerve atrophy limiting print reading to about 20 minutes. He overcame early failures, aided by his late mother’s spelling lessons, after attending grammar school in Winona Minnesota and high school in Jacksonville, NL.
