In my (faulty?) memory, I thought they discovered his learning disability before he went to NYU, but I'm more than likely wrong. Again, not going to research it.....

His dad and mom are both intelligent professionals and VERY dedicated to their family. The let the son just coast with Ds into *college* without ever trying to figure out if something was wrong?
Dr. H should have put down the pudding pops for a few minutes and had a chat w/his son.

Here's another question that keeps me up at night...
How in the Hell did Opie Taylor manage to have Helen Crump as his only teacher for the entire eight year run of the Andy Griffith Show?

They must have had a one room school house in Mayberry.

that honestly should be a post within itself, major changes made to shows after the pilot without any explanation.

The real question is how and why did Mr. Feeny follow them there
(and teach them every year in high school still).
