[nabs-l] question

[Serena]

Generally speaking, you don't really get Braille in college, except for an 
occasional novel from your library for the blind.  The universities usually 
have nothing to do with getting Braille.  I didn't take Math in college cuz 
I wasn't required to for my major.  If it is required for yours or if you 
just wanna take it, using a reader can work well if you're experienced using 
readers.  One of my friends from my college (not on this list) used a reader 
and he did all right in Math.  The reader just happened to be a friend of 
his, so I think that helped in his case.
