Hey it is normally the challenge of all the blind students at a college, not 
just you.  Smile.

Believe me, I had a difficult time getting my masters.

Zaria is my first Leader Dog and Lily is my second.

My first master's degree is in School Psychology and the second is in
Counseling & Guidance.  They are related fields but in Texas, you can't
practice psychology without supervision or bill Medicaid/Medicard/insurance.
I'm going to be practicing as a grief and bereavement counselor at a hospice
inpatient unit.

I've had no end of difficulties with this master's since accessibility has
been an ongoing problem with books and WebCT and online sites., probably due
to the fact that I don't "do" things like the *other* blind students at our
campus.  I'm not quite blind enough or deaf enough, lol.

As for being interesting?

Bah humbug <vbg>
