The announcement is part of the settlement of a lawsuit filed two years ago by a California man with no hands who was granted extra time and the use of a computer with a trackball for taking the management test. When the plaintiff in the California suit was rejected from the business schools to which he applied, he filed his suit charging that the testing service's flagging policy violated state and federal anti- discrimination laws, stigmatizing disabled students with a kind of scarlet letter. In settling the case, the testing service did not admit any violation of the law. The new policy will go into effect in October. Check out these events that are happening this month.
