If a blind student wants to do a CS undergrad (in US) specifically to work in assistive technology, what schools would be particularly good for that? (Feel free to boost for reach.)

@mdekstrand CUNY SPS is where I went through (specialized in assistive technology/accessibility) via their Disability Studies program. I went for postgrad though and I'm not blind myself, but several professors were/many of them were disabled of some kind, used AT themselves, etc. Seconding RIT, the iSchool, and University of Maryland. MICA (also in MD) also has a UX and assistive tech program, but I don't know much about it and it was off my consideration due to cost.

It's been a minute; let's do this again:

If you are a Tabletop RPG nerd and have less than, say, 500 followers (or think you have less than 500 that are actually active):

  1. Write a post to introduce yourself and your particular nerdery, if you haven't already got one pinned.

  2. Reply in the comments with a link to or copy of that post.

  3. Share, check back to find people you want to follow, all that.

@LeviKornelsen Thanks!

Accessibility specialist but also huge tabletop nerd with chronic pain conditions. I have been helping with writing D&D Dungeoncrafts with my partner as we can, but I've also written for Onyx Path and High Level Games in the past. Would love to help with writing, editing, and digital consulting (for example: websites, PDF documents). One of my favorite Dungeoncrafts I've written: "A Rogue Heart": https://www.dmsguild.com/product/422491/SJDCNOS02-A-Rogue-Heart

If folk can share/donate/tell your friends about me raising funds for a power chair, that would be much appreciated: I need to get this visible and out places. The chairs I'm looking at are listed (City2Go, Mobility Quattro, with a runner-up). https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-fund-a-power-chair

Arthritis and fibromyalgia (and dizziness/fall risk) means I am raising money for a power chair and seeing about being that ambulatory - using it to save energy as I can, go farther, etc. Problem: power chairs are expensive, with the average cost about $2,500 base price. https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-fund-a-power-chair
