Please don't give up on your dream because of stupid immature people. Your professor may realize your potential. I have a friend who was trained by the Airforce in computer science and is a professional in that field though he stuttered. He's the admin of a new Facebook group: ‘Treatment for Stuttering Support Group’ on Facebook. Try that for support. There will be a live tomorrow, Sunday, April 16th. I don't know the time but join that group. Sincerely, Sue
