  • Lacrosse Star Paul Rabil, Writer Philip Schultz Advocate for Learning Disabled
    Lacrosse star Paul Rabil, writer Philip Schultz advocate for the learning disabled - The W... Page 1 of 2 Back to previous page Lacrosse star Paul Rabil, writer Philip Schultz advocate for learning disabled By Valerie Strauss, Published: November 13 The academics at Johns Hopkins University are tough for any student, but for Paul Rabil, they were a special hardship. Rabil, 25, Major League Lacrosse’s 2011 Most Valuable Player, has a condition called auditory processing disorder that can make reading and writing an excruciating trial. Surviving the reading- intensive courses at Hopkins required accommodations available to students with learning disabilities, and time — lots of it — to read and reread material to absorb its meaning. That intensity — Rabil refers to himself as “cutthroat determined” — has informed his approach to lacrosse and is guiding his new effort to help young people with learning differences thrive through athletics, and to raise public awareness about the need for early diagnosis and intervention. “I want kids with learning differences to know that they can do great things,” said Rabil, who lives in Baltimore. “It may sound like a cliche, but I don’t look at my condition as a disability, but as something that made me work hard to get where I wanted to go.” Learning disabilities are caused by differences in brain structure. Estimates vary on the percentage of Americans with a disability; government agencies cite 10 to 15 percent. The most common disability is dyslexia, an inherited disorder in which the brain does not properly recognize and process symbols, making it difficult to read and write.
