[nabs-l] Disappointed

[Jess]

Christopher,
If you would please contact me off list. I'm interested in getting an NFB 
State Student chapter going  here in New York. I believe I met you in the 
summer of 2007 when  you attended the Pre College Summer Prep program at 
SUNY Albany.  As far as I can glean the Student Division used to be active 
but it now has been for several years or so now.
Put Student Division for NABS in the Subject line.
Jessica
