We get the second installment of the audio diary of Josh Cutler. Josh is a 17-year-old New Yorker who has Tourette's Syndrome — a neurological disorder that causes verbal outbursts and that can interfere with social relationships. This summer, Josh spent several weeks taking law and poetry classes at Bennington College in Vermont; we hear how he went to a new place and made new friends.
