[blindlaw] State VR Occupational Goal

[RJ Sandefur]

It's your vocational goal and not hers! If you want to be an atturney, you 
persue your dreams! I was told that V.R wouldn't assist me in going to 
Seminary in order to become a pastor, and so I didn't listen to what VR said 
and I did it anyway. In your situation, they are required to assist you in 
any way they can. RJ
