one of the highlights of the summer is rapidly approaching. That is
the NFB national convention! And with convention of course, comes the
National Association of Blind Students annual business meeting! The
meeting is not only comprised of  many fun, informative and engaging
presentations; but elections will also take place then.
The positions that are up for re-election this year are that of
President, 2nd Vice President, Secretary and two board members.
Some of you will of course be wondering how in the world you will know

teleconference before elections.
