[nabs-l] graduation and majors

[Jordan Richardson]

Bill, 
I noticed that you mentioned that you said that one of your double majors
was in Physics.  If you are needing help with the labs I suggest you contact
Cary Supalo.  He has created several scripts for JAWS so that it works with
a program called "LoggerPro."  The sensors that go with Logger now are
accessible because of Cary Supalo.  Just ask if you have any more questions.
Good luck!
Jordan

Since we are discussing majors it seems, I have decided to double major in
physics and math/computer science.  As you can imagine, this has presented a
few challenges.  One of which is what most blind students worry about, which
is of course accessing labs.  unfortunatly I have not really come up with a
good solution.  The other main one students who are blind worry aboutt is;
homework.  I originally solved this with a scribe since I did not have time
to find another self-sufficient solution.  Now, I hope to learn a
typesetting language called LaTeX.  If anyone has questions about other
issues that they have in any of these areas, I am happy to share how I
approached that problem.  If anyone has recommendations, I welcome those
too.
