<p>Molly,</p>
<p>I assume you’re worried about OBD’s assumption Middlebury won’t be inclined to admit you because of your dyslexia and that your post will be read by admissions? </p>
<p>I view this issue through a different prism.</p>
<p>There are approximately 170 enrolled students who have a self-reported disability. Middlebury’s admissions officers are to be commended for admitting such a significant number of students with special needs. It’s possible the next Tim Cordes will be a Middlebury graduate :)</p>

<p>The opportunity to be inspired by and learn from classmates who have the fortitude and courage to flourish and succeed despite having a disability is as valuable to a student’s education as what is learned in the classroom. </p>
<p>You’ve demonstrated by your determination that having a disability doesn’t equate to being disabled. That’s an accomplishment to be extremely proud of!</p>
