[nabs-l] A Few Unrelated Questions

[Elizabeth Mohnke]

Hello All,

I hope this message finds everyone doing well as I am sure many of you are
most likely in the final stages of preparing to attend national convention.
I have a few unrelated questions I would like to ask everyone who is on this
email list.

First, are there any blind students out there who have a cognitive
disability in addition to blindness? If so, I would be interested in
connecting with you off list.

Second, has anyone on the email list taken an environmental geology class
before? If so, what types of accommodations did you use for this class? I
would greatly appreciate any information even though this question may have
been asked on the email list before.

Third, does anyone have any advice on writing a thank you letter as part of
receiving a scholarship? I need to write a thank you letter as part of
receiving a foundation scholarship from my local community college, and
although I am often prone to ramble, I have absolutely no idea what to say
in this letter beyond simply saying thank you. 

There is not much of a description for this particular scholarship besides
the number of credits a student needs to take and the grade point average a
student needs to maintain as a part of receiving this scholarship. I already
asked the person in charge of the scholarship program if she could provide
more details about how the scholarship was created as a way to help me write
the thank you letter. However, I did not receive any additional information
from asking this question. So I am at a loss as to what to say in this thank
you letter.

If anyone has any thoughts or ideas regarding any of these questions, I
would greatly appreciate hearing from you. Please feel free to respond on
the email list, off the email list, or at national convention.

Thanks,
Elizabeth
