What Kali Yuga said... That schools have to provide reasonable accommodation for students with disabilities is nothing new. If the NFB -- which is, after all, an advocacy organization -- wants to push to get the technology to work better for blind students, more power to them. And as for everybody carping, well, it's the law of the land.
I'll also say that I'm a university student, and hard of hearing. I have a lot of sympathy for students with more serious disabilities. Even when administrators have the best intentions, they often have to be pushed to do what's right.
