Even if it was a course requirement, I don't see where that makes any difference from what happens now. If a course requirement is for a hardcover textbook, and a blind student takes the course then the blind student gets a brail version of the book. If the school is using the Kindle DX with a required ebook then the blind student gets a brail version. There is no difference.
Now if the school was requiring the blind student to buy a Kindle in addition to the brail book then there would be something to complain about, but that is not what is being argued here.
