Schools and universities are starting up in a few weeks and the BBC is looking for incoming university students with disabilities to blog about their experiences as ivory tower initiates. Content will appear on the BBC’s disability-themed Ouch! website. The solicitation didn’t specify whether they are only interested in U.K. students, but it might be interesting to have an American perspective in the mix. And it could be a great way to earn yourself a little on-campus recognition, which in turn might reap rewards for your social life. The BBC is even offering a small stipend to the selected participants.
I blogged for Ouch! a couple years and had a great time doing it, although I never did get the autographed picture of Billie Piper that I had requested. The disappointment still lingers.
