To take the course from Hadley if you've not taken courses from them, you 
need to send for an application and they will send it to you with a Dr.s 
form to fill out and then after that is all taken care of you will get an 
orientation course to see if you follow dirrections. And after all that 
you must take a medical trans profile, to see if or how well you can 
type.  After that is Med Trans I.  That consists of alot of lessons with 
a list of vocabulary, which you must put each word on a 4-by 6 file card 
and keep all of them for further reference.  It is time consuming, but 
very interesting.  I think they're trying to make a new book. The 
teachers' name is Frances Holland. Then there is Med Trans II which 
consists of many different reports.  The ones I liked were the autopsys. 
After you finish the course you will receive a certificate that has 
C.E.U. (credit education units)  I wish some day they would have regular 
college courses.  Also ask for a catalog. They have an 800 number, but I 
don't know the out of state number.  I am now taking personal psychology. 
 I don't know what I will take next.  The address is: The Hadley School 
for the Blind 700 Elm street,  Winnetka, Il. 60093.  I hope I have 
answered some of the questions.
