It's going great!
I'm glad finals will be over, and I get to be home, instead of
constantly leaving for school!
I've finally won a huge victory with my Rehab, which was the only
problem I was having in college, (putting this message back on 
topic.)
I'll have my books in Braille, and I'll also have a notetaker, so 
some
of my challenges will be alleviated.
Blessings, Joshua

 Faculty and staff have never given me problems, at my college.
 The layout, and the fact that the Braille on the signs, for each
 class, isn't informative enough, have been my main problems.
 The rooms are labeled, "Classroom," and "Office," but the room 
number
 is labeled, in Print.
 Why not label the room numbers, in Braille?
 This makes my traveling on campus, difficult!
 Blessings, Joshua

 Thanks to those who have responded so far.

 My presentation is tomorrow morning during the 9:00 hour.  Other
 disabilities are also represented.

 It is primarily a personal sharing about our experiences, but I 
want
 to also get some feedback from the list.

 I agree with the campus layout being somewhat hard to navigate 
and
 challenges with handouts and online material.

 I meant to ask this in my original e-mail, but has anyone had 
positive
 experiences with faculty, staff, classroom and campus?

 Thanks,
 Osmond

 Dear All,

 I was just invited to give a ten minute presentation to an 
audience of
 faculty and administrators about the challenges sight impaired
 individuals face in the classroom and on campus.  I am the only 
sight
 impaired student represented.  I wanted to ask those on the list 
if you
 could share some challenges you face on campus and in the 
classroom
 that faculty and administrators should know.

 Thanks,
 Osmond
