[Blindmath] Questions about accommodations

[Susan Mooney]

Oh, come on, Jose!  You really can't believe that someone who is simply blind--who has no other physical disability preventing him or her from using his/her arms and legs and no mental disability preventing him/her from being able to perform daily living skills--should not be expected to be able to function on his/her own other than being able to study, pass exams, write papers, and read and that this individual would need assistance with things like bathing and eating?  Come on!!  We're talking graduate school, beyond the age of ... what? 23 years old? Evaluating individuals is one thing. Not being able to eat and bathe after more than 23 years on the planet is a whole 'nutha ball game!
