A year after I was intiated, we recruted and initiated a quad. Hes a great guy and 10 years later now serves as the treasurer of the Alumni Assn.
For a quad hes always been very independent. Roomed with a brother who assisted with his care. He then moved into a single on campus and he had a netowrk of brothers who could/would come by and check on him and help him get ready for bed. I'd usually help out 1 or 2x a week. HEs now married to a great girl and is driving! I was so glad to see him take that extra step towards independence. Honestly, I have never seen him any different - just as a brother. Its been a great learning experience for me and am grateful for the opportunity to learn just how normal anyone with a disability is.
