In today's edition of the "Good Stuff," a special needs man lights up after finding out he's been accepted to college.
Rion Holcombe,20, has down syndrome, but he knows no bounds.
So he applied to a program at Clemson university designed for students with special needs, and just the other day, got a letter saying he was in.
See his reaction above and if you have #GoodStuff news, let us know!

I wish this young man " ALL THE LUCK IN THE WORLD" Congratulation !!!! =)
Wonderful story. His mom was probably advised to have an abortion. Thank God she chose life.

I am glad for this stories. To often we are told that mental disabilities are a tragedy, limiting a person to nothing more than menial labor. We cannot discount anyone because of an immutable characteristic. I hope that he goes on to do great things.
What is going on with the kid who should go to prison rather then rehab
This is so wonderful! I wish there had been such a program for my sister (she has CP) it would have made her life so much better. I wish all the best for this young man. God Bless him.
