A student who is legally blind approaches a staff member in International Education and asks for large-print or audiocassette information about studying in Spain. Another student with a GPA that is too low to qualify him for study abroad asks that an exception be made because the effects of his disability lowered his grades. A third student tells her academic advisor that study abroad cannot be part of her college plan because she has a learning disability and needs taped books and readers for her exams.
