Open to all Rutgers students; free.

This is one of the general club meetings for the Rutgers Seeing Eye Puppy Raising Club (RUSEPRC). At this meeting, we will be setting up a sighted guide course for our club members to do! Club members will pair up, one will be blindfolded and the other sighted. The sighted student will help the blindfolded student navigate through the course. The course will have a few obstacles in addition to some day to day activities, such as pouring cereal, putting on and tying sneakers, etc. The sighted person will learn how to properly guide a visually impaired person and the person blindfolded will have the experience of going through some day to day tasks without the use of vision.
