[nabs-l] has anyone ever attended these colleges

[Kelsey Nicolay]

Hello,
I just obtained my degree, but it was not in the field I 
ooiginally considered.  I originally considered either speech 
therapy or education.  I started my college courses at a satelite 
location of the University of Akron and tranferred to a smaller 
school because my parents and I agreed that they did not want me 
living in downtown Akron.  Therefore, in a few years once I have 
gotten a decent job and am able to afford it, I think I would 
like to go baca to school and persue one of the fields mentioned 
earlier.  Unfortunately, I have discovered that private schools 
are so much more expensive than state schools.  Plus, the speech 
therapy program is only offered at the larger state schools, so I 
have no choice but to go there.  Therefore, I am trying to see if 
I can talk to a blind student who has gone to a larger college 
and get their opinions.  The college where I obtained my 
bachelor's degree from had a total student population of 2,000, 
smaller than my high school.  Has anyone ever attended or know 
someone who has attended any of the following schools: University 
of Akron, Bowling Green State University, Edinboro University of 
Pennsylvania, or Kent State University.  All these schools have 
my program and are all public universities, so tuition would be 
cheaper.  I did consider Akron and bg and visited both campuses a 
while back, but I did not get a chance to tour the bg campus in 
its entirety.  All I can remember is that the campus wasn't too 
bad.  If you have or know someone who attended these schools, 
what did they think of it? Was the campus accessible to a blind 
person? Were professors helpful? Please feel free to write me 
offlist and share your experiences.
Thanks,
