UIUC freshman engineer dropped

@KidfromOK I hope you had time to read through the entire thread to see that we have a “happy ending.” This is a difficult process and mystifying in so many ways. However, my S is happily enrolled at a small liberal arts/engineering college and is doing well. We are proud of him. This year was 4 years since high school and he would have graduated, had he gone straight through. But we are focusing on the story of the tortoise and the hare. . . .
