BAID NETWORK FORM

Barnard                   Alumnae                     Involved with                        Disabilities

Calling all Barnard alumnae with disabilities!  Coordinated by ODS – and co-sponsored with Alumnae Affairs and Career Development – the BAID Network is a clearinghouse for disability-related information re: graduate school and the world of work.  First established in 1988, BAID enables current students with disabilities the opportunity to talk and/or meet with disabled alumnae from a wide variety of fields.  Time commitments are flexible depending on your interest, availability, and schedules. Participation can vary from a phone conversation or email, to participation on a panel, to sponsoring an internship or shadowing appointment.  Please complete the BAID form and return it to ODS in the enclosed self-addressed envelope – or online at: http://www.barnard.edu/ods/forms/baidform.html

If you have any questions or would like more information, please call Susan Quinby at 212/854-4634 (voice/TTY). We welcome your involvement and look forward to hearing from you!
