[Electronics-talk] Good wired headphones with built-in microphone

[Lanie Molinar]

I'm going to a university called South University. I'm hoping to get a 
Bachelor of Science in Information Technology so that I can learn to 
create websites and software. To be honest, I'm more than a little 
concerned about the accessibility of the online classroom. I've barely 
been in school for 5 days and have already encountered two accessibility 
problems.
