Um...

(1) Why can't you get anything in Braille? Is the DSB not 
offering you anything in Braille anymore? I thought you said you 
had to deal with them if you are to get your books in Braille.  
Well, if you get a Pacmate, you won't need hardcopies.
2.  How did you deal with the last compressed video class you 
took? I remember you talking about that on the list before, but 
can't remember how you handled it if you took the class.

"The real problem of blindness is not the loss of eyesight.  The 
real problem is the misunderstanding and lack of education that 
exists.  If a blind person has the proper training and 
opportunity, blindness can be reduced to a mere physical 
nuisance."

Subject: [nabs-l] Results of my Rehab meeting

Well, I have some good news, and bad news, from this meeting.
The good news, I'm finally getting some cooperation, and I might 
be
able to have a Pac Mate, for the rest of my college tenure.
The bad news, is as follows.
#1.  I can't get anything, in Braille.
#2.  All of my classes are at night, except for College Algebra.
#3.  They're letting me take a Philosophy class, in place of 
Music
Appreciation, but there's one problem!
It's another compressed video class!
#4.  I won't get to graduate in May.
They're claiming, that I lack 4 hours, so I'll have to take that 
other
Science class, in the Fall.
That's a community college for you!
Oh well!
At least, this time, the counselor showed up, (LOL!)
Blessings, Joshua
