[rehab] RRTC Grant review

[Edward Bell]

Dear O&M and Rehab Colleagues, 

 

Several weeks ago I posted to this list an opportunity for you to submit
your name as a reviewer for the Rehabilitation Research and Training Center
on Blindness/Low Vision grant competition. 

 

It was recently brought to my attention that at least one individual was
rejected as a reviewer for this competition on the basis of membership in
the NFB. I do not know if this is true, but wanted to ask each of you to
e-mail me off this list at: 

ebell at latech.edu

 

Let me know: 

1.       Whether you applied to be a reviewer, and 

2.       If  you were accepted or rejected, and if any reason was given in
the latter case. 

Thanks, 

 

Eddie
