There he learned -how to teach the Optacon to blind persons. Rejean Proulx, a second year Western University student, *es his first pupil. ,` Rejean graduated ' from 'a ' to- day course with a speed of 20 words a minute on the Optacon. "1' will use the Optacon to read the print-outs and the punch cards as soon as they come out of the computer," said Rejean Proulx. `.`Braille and volunteer readers are wonderful assets but hi a computer course like mine „you really need to read the ma- terial straight off the computer. Without the Optacon, 'theUni- versity would have been. reluc- tant to enroll me in the, course." Blind all his life, Rejean Proulx hails from Hearst, Ont. Born in 1052, he attended the Ontario School for the Blind for Grades i - 12 and took his Grade 13 in the regular high school in Hearst. 'The Ontario Ministry of Com- munity and Social Services provided the 'assessment and' special training for Mr. Proulx and his own Optacon for use in the university residence. f tETURNS FROM TOUR .
