[Nfb-science] FW: accommodations with physics courses in college

[Daniel]

This is the original message which I have sent to the Blindmath 
listserv, after which I found that there was a science listserv 
as well.

Subject: accommodations with physics courses in college

Dear listserv members,

I am Daniel Gillen, a soon-to-declare physics major at Haverford 
College in Pennsylvania.  I have finished my first year, having 
taken the first two semesters of physics.  There were a multitude 
of accessibility nightmares from heavy use of diagrams to the 
online Mastering Physics platform whose graphical user interface 
did not me independently type in answers to problems with JAWS.  
Anyway, I know this listserv is for math-related materials.  But 
since physics is about 90% math (nearly 100% as accessibility is 
concerned), I would like to have some idea of how best to obtain 
accommodations for higher-level physics courses.  Is there a 
listserv at NFB that deals with the sciences? I know I was able 
to get accommodations for last year's courses, but the system was 
one that depended largely on the availability of assistants whose 
themselves were students with schedules.  What I'm only trying to 
do now is make sure that all my accommodations for my Waves and 
Optics course are ready to use in the fall, so why not reach out 
to those at Blindmath while also contacting my other resources?

Thank you,
Daniel
