...et al Money awaits takers There’s $3,280 up for grabs, and nobody's grabbing it. The Office of Student Services is looking for five or six students with work study grants to fulfill job openings, but has gotten only one re sponse to date. Shirley Wilson, associate dean of students and coordinator of services for the handicapped, says the jobs consist of readers, library research assistants and typers for five blind University students. She stresses that work schedules are very flexible. The University is obligated to help handicapped students through Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, which states there must be complete access of education for the handicapped. "Our blind students are the ones we haven't been able to help.” says Wilson. “They’re the ones that are in a crisis state.” Interested students with work-study grants should contact the Work Study Office in Oregon Hall to set up an interview.
