Â鶹¹û¶³´«Ã½ Clayton Dagler:
In ninth grade, Clayton Dagler’s math teacher told him that he
shouldn’t aspire to higher level math classes. Maybe the teacher
was trying to do Dagler a favor. After all, the teenager did
suffer from dyslexia and had a hard time in the class.
Instead, that demeaning comment had the opposite effect, giving Dagler the motivation to prove his teacher wrong. Instead of quitting math, Dagler continued to take higher level classes, eventually graduating from UC Davis with a mathematics degree.
