Making the Grade: College Students with Visual Impairments.
McBroom, L. W.
Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, v91 n3 p261-70 May-Jun 1997
This study of the transition experiences of 102 college students with visual impairments (blindness or low vision), and of the services offered for students with disabilities at 66 colleges, found that the colleges provided most of the services students need to be successful. Students also identified areas in which visually impaired high school students should prepare before entering college. (DB)
