[NAGDU] Contracts

[sblanjones11 at sbcglobal.net]

I believe the last time I was scheduled for training at Guiding Eyes, I saw
the contract before beginning class, along with a few other documents that
required my immediate signature.

To me, it does no good if the prospective student can't review the contract
at the same time, or before, making an application.  If you don't see the
contract until you get there, or until you're about to leave, you can't make
a free decision.  You've already invested a lot of time and energy, and, if
the signing is at the end, you've gotten attached to the dog and don't want
to give it up just because of some document.
In these days when it's so easy to create and share accessible documents, I
would think every school would be showing the contracts at the beginning of
the process, and I would really question any who aren't.

At Geb, I received it in hardcopy just before greaduating. I do not remember
seeing it anywhere before then.
