To Whom It May Concern:

The Minnesota Association of Blind Students is excited to let you know about
our upcoming Student Spring Seminar to be held on Saturday, 6 April, 2013
from 10:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M.  The meeting will be held at the National
Federation of the Blind of Minnesota headquarters located at 100 E 22nd
Street in Minneapolis, Minnesota 55404.

The day's events are open to high school and college students, prospective
students, and anyone else who wishes to help advocate for student-related
policies.  The theme for this event is "Access to Opportunity!"
Topics will include a presentation by the Communication Center of State
Services for the Blind, the chance to interact with a panel of undergraduate
and graduate college students, the opportunity to hear from a representative
of a college disability services office, several opportunities to meet and
network with other blind students and blind professionals, and much more.
