> Greetings everyone,
> Since I am new to this list, I wanted to take the time to introduce
> myself. My name is Jonathan and I am a Senior at The University of
> Texas at Austin where I am studying Social Work with a Minor in
> Psychology. Once I graduate this December with a BSw, I am looking to
> attend Graduate School in order to earn a MSW and then get my
> licensure as an LCSW. Honestly, I  was not that interested in Human
> service until I lost my sight 9 years ago. At that point I became very
> involved with volunteering as well as became interested in the realm
> of psychology. I had originally attended college in California at the
> age of 18-19 in 2002, but had to drop out because of family issues. My
> family and friends convinced me to go back to college and delve into
> the realm of social work and psychology. I never imagined myself
> getting into a top University, yet alone into into an School of Social
> Work that is ranked in the top 10 in the country. I am a very
> dedicated member of the National Federation of the Blind, I am a Board
> Member for the State of Texas, The 1st Vice President of my local
> Austin, Texas Chapter and the treasurer for the Texas Association of
> Blind Students. I look forward to getting involved with this division
> in any capacity that I am able to as well am looking forward to what
> this division has to offer at the 2015 National Convention.
