[Nfb-krafters-korner] Hadley

Hi Everyone,

I'm just reading this thread and not sure if I understand what you said in the original, Naima.  Are you saying you have a print book with the lessons for the writing part?  They didn't send you a digital cartridge to listen to in order to do the writing part?  ?  Did they send you a slate and stylus to do the writing?  And I think you mean the Braille Literacy 4 course which is for contracted braille.  I took the course last year.  

Hadley, I believe, is currently redoing the course and setting it up with UEB rules.  I can't understand why they wouldn't accommodate you except that the course isn't available right now.

I'd like to invite anyone who is interested to join the Office Hours group that Susan Fisher, a Hadley braille instructor, moderates on Tuesdays at 3:30 CDT.  The phone number is 712-432-5610 and the access code is 6658.  We meet for an hour and share braille and blindness related information.  We recently did a braille drawing given by Susan.  Sometimes we've had as many as 18 people on the call.  Come and join us.

Annely

     Naima, it is hard
 to believe the Hadley staff refused to accommodate
 you.  The staff always goes out of their way to meet
 the needs of the
 students.  Call student services and talk to them.

 Yeh, they didn't do that, it was against the rules.

 Could they e-mail the written part or you get it on their
 website? Did you
 ask them?
