Lounging just outside the Currier House fishbowl, a young man clad in a blue sweater and worn jeans browses through an intimidating stack of required reading. Joseph K. Cooper ’07 barely notices other students as they occasionally pass by. He looks like any other student, smoking cigarettes over his sourcepacks as he worries about getting that problem set in on time.

Recalls Virginia Cooper, 73, who has a grandchild with ADHD: "My daughter said, 'Mother, I think you've got it.' And I said, 'Don't be ridiculous.' But then I read about it and realized that maybe she was right. I've always been distracted. I cannot stick to one thing. It's like somebody's changing channels in my brain...
