Cheryl,

     Thank you for the reply! Yes you bring up a very good point. We can
most definitely send out a copy of the facebook post onto Ohio Talk or any
other platform into an accessible format.  Right now, we are trying to
spread the word out to to get more students of the class of 2020 involved.
