Student Sues LSU Over Booting

Kenneth Hopkins, who is blind and an 'A' student ranked in the top of his class, was booted from the LSU Computer Rehabilitation Program for being too "disabled," reports The Advocate. Hopkins has filed suit seeking to remain in the program. "Until the courts resolve the issue, Hopkins continues to attend classes on a judge's order. Success will be felt, he muses, only if it prevents more disabled students from experiencing the same fate."
