Romoser, Mark
Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, v15 n4 p246-47 Win 2000
In this humorous article, a man with autism discusses his struggles with the world of employment despite his cum laude degree from Yale University. The underemployment of people with disabilities is highlighted, along with the lack of "people skills" that individuals with autism have, which creates a barrier to employment. (CR)
