This paper was developed from the experiences of Mitchell's (a pseudonym) participation in a four-year research study with nine other college students with LD. At the end of the four years at the university, all the students graduated. After graduation, Mitchell transitioned to employment by a government agency. He was diagnosed with multiple LD and his transition to and persistence in college and into his first year of employment where his LD influenced his day-to-day college and work activities are discussed. Mitchell's experiences were singled-out from the other nine students who participated in the study because he was diagnosed with dyslexia, dysgraphia, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. He majored in and graduated in two disciplines plus declared a minor in a third, used very few university accommodations and still managed to graduate with honors and earn success in the workplace. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of College Student Journal is the property of Project Innovation Austin LLC and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
