Well what do you think of this:
Under the headline "Retarded Immigrant Strives for Independence," reporter Arthur Bovino notes approvingly that 21-year-old Kareen Dupervil, a mentally retarded Haitian woman "with a first-grade reading level," has applied for a job as a baggage handler at La Guardia Airport in Queens, N.Y.
The Times writer tells us that Dupervil "took a test at the airport with two other mentally retarded adults . Though Ms. Dupervil did not pass, the trainer who gave the test called (her job counselor) to encourage her to study and try again." Thanks to help from the Brooklyn Bureau of Community Service, a government-funded charity that provides disabled and "undocumented" persons with employment assistance and is supported by the Times's Neediest Cases Fund, Dupervil will be tutored "for the test twice a week. She will take the test again in a few months."
And she will take the test again and again, presumably, until she passes -- or sues under the federal Americans with Disabilities Act to get the job. Only the best and the brightest security professionals at our nation's airports .
