Dr. Kaycee Bills, who has autism, fought hard for her PhD against the voices of her disbelievers. Now, armed with her doctorate and a brand-new assistant professorship, she has become a voice of encouragement for those like her.
“I got bullied all the time,” Bills admitted to WTVD. “My teachers told my parents every year ... that college was not a goal for me.” Maybe she should learn a trade skill, they said.
