| Description |
High
school/College. |
NABS-L,
the National Alliance of Blind
Students' Symposium, is an
open-forum discussion list
designed to facilitate dialogue
among blind/visually-impaired
students regarding relevant
issues and topics of interest.
Examples of topics appropriate
for this list include, but are
not limited to: educational
equity and equality for the
blind, employment issues and
opportunities, the use of
computers and other assistive
technology, accessibility issues,
discrimination, advocacy, working
with readers, dealing with campus
offices of Disabled Student
Services, breaking down prejudice
and stereotypes of blindness,
maintaining and fostering
independence, and exchanging
ideas and personal experience
stories of blindness. It is hoped
that this list will enable blind
students to make the most of
their college experiences, and
will encourage their full and
equal participation in society.
This list will also serve as a
forum for disseminating and
discussing issues specifically
related to NABS, the National
Alliance of Blind Students, which
is an affiliate of The American
Council of the Blind (ACB).
However, all blind students are
encouraged to join; list
participants need not be members
of NABS or ACB. While NABS-L is
primarily intended for blind and
visually-impaired students, other
interested persons may also take
part, provided these individuals
are committed to independence and
equality for the blind, and
provided this list does not lose
its student-oriented focus.
