[nabs-l] An additional question about selecting universety

[Marsha Drenth]

In big cities, as a blind person, your able to blend in better. Your one of
a number of blind people who might live in the city, thus also being able to
connect with them. In big cities blind people are not seen all the time, but
there is a greater chance of there being blind people living around or near.
I would also say that this cuts down the obstacles that a blind person might
have. 

Just my opinion and two cents,
marsha

Subject: [nabs-l] An additional question about selecting universety

Hi all!

As I told you some time ago, I'm currently choosing a university to
study a Master's Degree. I have to think about it carefully, since I'm
going to spend two years there. So far, I have been offered admision
in the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville. According to what I've
been searching, that city is small and rural.
I also have university optiones at Gainesville, Tampa, Dekalb, and
philadelphia; but I'm still waiting for them to answer.
Here is the question:
Acorrding to your experience, do you think that people with
disabilities are likely to be better received in big cities than in
small ones?
Are we more exposed to prejudices in small cities?

Thank you in advance for your comments and suggestions!
