[nabs-l] Services for international students

[Chris Parsons]

Greg and all,

No problem. My apologies. I was not very clear in my initial message. The

notes in class.

My mistake.  I didn't catch that the student was also blind.  I was thinking 
of a person to help take notes.  Dismiss my last reply.
