[Blind-international-students] [Blind-international-students introduction

Mon Aug 2 20:01:48 UTC 2010

Hina,
I am not sure that the "underserved populations," group will directly
help with people who are not in America. I am not sure, though.
Maybe Yasmin has been to their meetings.
I have not been to these meetings. There was always something that I
had to attend instead of that meeting.
I know that the committee would probably be willing to help
international students (after they come to America) but I am unsure
about before.

When we were in the intercultural exchange meeting,
we discussed sending things to other countries.
Someone had a way of sending things that bypassed lots of postage and
postal rules. But, I don't know who he was and how he did it.
Anmol, Can you remember?

I think that (if we don't incorporate into the Underserved population
group) we should start having conference calls.
That was a great idea and I think that it would help us to get some
projects off of the ground.

Any thoughts????
Jan
