Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.

>> Hello All,
>> 
>> One of my professors this semester is refusing to provide me with accommodations so I can receive equal access to the course materials for my class. I have been spending most of my time trying to figure out how to deal with this situation. So far nothing I have tried has worked. My professor is rather argumentative and uncooperative. And it does not appear as though having someone from the disabilities office talk with her has done anything to improve this situation.

I am honestly not quite sure what to do next. But it is possible I may need to file complaints against my professor and possibly my college. So I would greatly appreciate hearing from anyone who would be interested and willing to help me in regards to this situation.
