Sessions
Intersectionality & Disabled Students - Reframing the Conversation in Higher Education
Nov. 15, 11:30 - 1 p.m. with Karen Andrews, director of student accessibility services, Brown University
Discrimination and exclusion are not resolved by focusing on a single issue or influence. Karen Andrews, Director of Student Accessibility Services at Brown University, will explore the useful framework of ‘Intersectionality’ as it relates to equitable opportunities, legal compliance, accessibility, barrier elimination, and best practice resources and services for disabled students.
Virtual Disability Services Coffee Chats
The morning after each series presentation, staff and faculty can ‘Zoom’ with DS in an informal virtual gathering centered around coffee, conversation, and constructive solutions. DS Coffee Chats are not recorded.
