Gary, as long as it is not KU :)

Remember the document you signed when you worked for MU?

I say this because I am selfish; I like the secretary we have; I like the
fact that you are a Missourian; I like the fact that you come and visit, and
I see Iowa as an impediment to all of that. So, I vote for a Missouri
school, but you are number one with me, no matter where you attend.

Good morning,  Thank you all...

Ruby, I didn't know you took piano lessons.  That's awesome.  I'll have to
take piano as well, so it's good to know they have a good program.

I will be obtaining a masters degree in music, probably a MA in music,
specializing in voice.  If I go to Iowa, I will be getting another
performance degree.  I need a university where the people are willing to
work with me as a blind person, give me performance oppertunities, and teach
me how to become a voice teacher.  I also need an access office that will
help me get my braille music and possibly allow me to use a computer for my
technology.  Right now the best thing going for Webster is our awesome
assistive tech coordinator.  She is the main reason why I was able to get
German and music things in braille.  With the amount of braille I need, I
don't see a way to handle that without an access office.  Sorry for the long
story...  :)

Now Gary, thank you for the advice, but why do you say this?
