Dear All,

I would like to take the advantage of the kind invitation by Rita to 
introduce myself.

I am currently a doctoral student (2nd year) at City Univerity 
rehabilitation resource centre, http://www,city.ac.uk/rrc  .

A brief biographical sketch may be found at 
http://www.city.ac.uk/~cx639/brief.htm .

My research project is related to the service provision for studnets weith 
disabilities in higher education.  An early version of the project outline 
can be found at http://www.city.ac.uk/~cx639/project.htm  .

The project is concerned with teh organisational policy and legislative 
environment for this provision.

I have recently started a new disability and higher education policy as an 
interdisciplinary list to encourage networking and dissemination across the 
academic disciplines, [log in to unmask] .  An early copy of the 
list information may be found at http://www.city.ac.uk/~cx639/list.htm .  
The list web page is http://www.mailbase.ac.uk/lists/dis-he-policy  where 
archives may be accessed.  It is direct access, no moderation-based list.

Your kind and generous support for this new list, complementing the 
accessibuilt list would be most welcome.

I am currently incolved in the development of a number of online resource 
directory projects, including a review of British disability releated 
discussion lists, a directory of ongoing and completed British phd 
dissertation projects and the arising papers and projects; directory 
ofonline disability releated disability resources for higher education 
(mostly British as a start), a directory of development and researh projects 
on disability and higher education, a directory of working papers on 
disability issues, a directory of research centres and courses on disability 
issues   among others. You are most welcome to contribute to these  
projects.  I will be creating separate web pages to expand on this message 
to explain the ways to contribute to these projects very soon. Due to 
constraints on teh human resources, I limit the coverage of these 
directories to teh UK based activites as a start.

As you may guess, my interest in the accessibuilt is at the policy level 
complementing my interest in other aspects.  I have already skimmed through 
teh archives and found the list very helpful and friendly.  I will cover 
this list in the discussion list directorry which I am currently preparing.

Hope it is clear and brief anough to elicit reponse and interest in th 
mentioned [log in to unmask] list as well as other projects.

Ozcan
