“I am a talented disabled black man that knew that the sky was the limit to what I could do and achieve if given the opportunity, so that I would accomplish some goals in my life, and contribute my talent to the society. But when I experienced many setbacks in my life, and was not given the opportunity to achieve my goals, I was depressed and suffered some emotional distress. I had only twenty two course credits to graduate with a Bachelor of Arts degree in mathematics. However, since I did not maintain a 2.0 grade point average required by the department, I was dropped from the study program of the university.” “Since I was almost in a destitute situation at the time, I applied and received some welfare assistance programs, like food stamps, etc. I never wanted to depend on welfare assistance to support myself, and the only way I could get myself out of that welfare predicament, was to finish school, get a job and support myself. ‘I did not have any money to pay for my school fees, but I went to school for that academic year, and the grades I received for those twenty two course credits that I took was not recorded in my transcripts for graduation, since I did not pay for my school fees. Surviving against all odds, and I did not quit, was how I paid and registered for those courses. Read on, and find out how that predicament was resolved, including the other challenges that I encountered during my painful journey.” Chibike I. Nwabude
