[nabs-l] major changes

[Hope Paulos]

Beth, there are plenty of blind music majors. Don't drop it just because you 
can't find a program that is compatible with jaws. There has to be 
*something* out there. If you want to receive a degree in music, then you 
should be able to. Don't let anything stop you from doing so!!!!

Hope and Beignet
