Be aware of Disability Awareness Days

There’s a group of students on this campus who approach learning in a slightly different manner than most of us. We use the label “disabled” to describe them, but differently-abled might be a better label (if you’re into labeling people). These individuals have much to offer to this university, different perspectives, which are always a good thing.

Today marks the beginning of Disability Awareness Days. We could think of no better way to encourage students to attend the events of this week than to give you a second chance to see when and where they’re happening. Want to open your mind and understand the world a little better? Then drop by one of these workshops or programs; you might be surprised at how much you can learn.
