     WHY IS IT SO DIFFICULT FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES
            TO ENTER AND SUCCEED IN CAREERS IN 
           SCIENCE, ENGINEERING, & MATHEMATICS?
                              
Project PURSUIT needs your insights!  We are seeking input from 
professionals in the fields of science, engineering, and mathematics, 
educators, people with disabilities, parents, rehabilitation 
professionals, and anyone else who would like to  contribute.  PURSUIT, 
an National Science Foundation-funded project, is researching the 
underrepresentation of people with disabilities in the careers of      
science, engineering, and mathematics.  People with disabilities 
encounter numerous barriers which may hinder them in the classroom, in 
laboratories, and in the workplace. Whether or not you have experience 
with people with disabilities, we would greatly value your ideas on this 
subject.
