Please note that the next class is the final; however, I'm in the process of
setting up a meeting with the adjunct instructor and members of the
administration, as well as disability services.

Sincerely,

Cory McMahon

Hi,
I understand that you were frustrated, but I don't think walking out is
reasonable at all, because it can make a statement to the professor that you
don't care. Since you presumably have a cane, then it will be made obvious
among everyone. In your situation I think I would have asked the professor
to pair me up with someone sighted and hope they would be accomodating. 
If you haven't explained why you walked out already, I think it would be a
good idea to write an email to your professor before the next class.
