I would say the reasonable accommodation would be for DSS to 
provide you a reader for this game.  I can understand why a 
professor wouldn't want to assign another student to do it with 
you.

Subject: [nabs-l] marketing class accomodation

Hi all,

Who has taken marketing? did you like the class? I want to learn 
more about the business environment and thought this would be a 
decent one.
But, the professor I wanted has been changed to another one. I 
will try that, provided we can work out accomodations.

Here is the issue. The professor assigns a semester long project 
with some interactive game. Its video based. With low vision and 
relying on my screen reader primarily, I cannot do the 
assignment. I asked for a work around, a substitute or work with 
a partner.

I see her tomorrow to begin class. She informs me via email, no 
substitute is available and tells me how much the project is 
worth. Additionally she says I cannot work with a partner
