[nabs-l] Work study

[justin williams]

Yes,; you are one of the fortunate ones in that reghard, however, work study
does pad the resume.  Remember those conversations about not getting hired
because of no work experience.  Employers, especially for that first job,
really look for work experience of any type.  I don't know if you have
worked, are working, or not.  However, we have had many conversations on
this list about such topics.  
Justin.

Aaron, some people don't have the option of going through college without
working at all to support themselves.  Also, having an employment record and
recommendations from your employer is useful for getting other jobs in the
future.

And internship is different from the work-study, I have never done work but
I will have to internship for my degree. I just think that doing other
things on top of college is honesty waste of time and it is not part of your
degree. I would like to do one, but I don't think is necessary at this time.
The reason for this is because you take longer on other things than most
people, we all do. So why make that even more harder on yourself.

Thanks
Aaron

blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every
day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations
create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can have the life
you want; blindness is not what holds you back.

internship with the the Center For Distributed Learning on my college campus
at UCF.  I work with the other web developers to ensure that online courses
are accessible to all of those stu%dents who have disabilities.
