Marilyn,

I went to St. Andrews and graduated in '75; don't some disabled students
live in the dorms with able-bodied students?  They did, when I was there;
the dorm for more severely disabled students was just finished when I
graduated.

I remember my years at St. A. with a great deal of nostalgia and fondness,
and still keep in touch w/a lot of my classmates.  I even served on the
Alumni Council this past year until I had to resign due to illness.  Please
email me if you or your daughter have any questions.  By the way, what's her
name?

Kathy  Salkin
