[nabs-l] Seeking assistance against discrimination

[Sean Whalen]

Good Friday afternoon,

 

I have been asked by a colleague to assist in an effort to find blind
individuals who study or work in the fields of zoology or animal science.
This is related to an effort to stop a school from discriminating against a
blind student wishing to enter this field. They need to hear from blind
people who have experience to demonstrate that blind individuals can work in
these fields. If you or anybody you know has work experience in any of the
following jobs, please contact me via nabs.president at gmail.com
<mailto:nabs.president at gmail.com>  so I can put you in touch. This is very
important and has major implications for the field of study or a young blind
individual. Please contact me at your earliest convenience if you know
anybody who has worked, or if you yourself have worked in these fields:

 

Entomologist, Fish Culturist, Fishery Biologist, Herpetologist,
Ichthyologist, Lepidopterist, Marine Biologist, Migratory Game Bird
Biologist, Ornithologist, Protozoologist, and Wildlife Biologist (all these
jobs fall under zoologist) or Animal Nutritionist, Animal Scientist, Beef
Cattle Nutritionist, Dairy Scientist, Poultry Scientist, and Swine Genetics
Researcher (all these jobs fall under animal scientist)

 

Thank you very much for your assistance!

 

Take care,

 

Sean
