[nabs-l] A blind Fulbright grantee's question

[Jedi]

Adriana,

There is no such thing as "the best university program out there for 
blind people." At least, not in the context you're in. The fact is that 
you should choose a university you're genuinely interested in. The 
blindness stuff can be worked out wherever you are. The only concern 
that might be valid as a blind person is transportation. You want a 
university that's close to things or that has good transport so you can 
go places. But beyond that, the world is your apple and I suggest you 
have a bite.

Respectfully,
Jedi
