If the university is willing to pay, a cab is an option, and this way no
person has to take a day or afternoon to drive. Just throwing out
options. A bus may be another option, though a bus certainly isn't the
most convenient option.

Yes, this is very important. People just do not realize at all that it
takes 
something more than just getting in our car and leaving home so that we
can 
be somewhere. Not only is it our time, it is someone else's time.  When
I go 
to the pottery studio to work, it is an hour long dive each way. Then, I
am 
there 3-4 hours working. That is a six hour day for TWO people, plus all
the 
expenses involved that April listed.  Not only is it very inconvenient
for 
the person who is taking us places, it is expensive, too.  This is our 
reality and one that a sighted person would never even think about for a

second.
