This course will review the history of the disability movement and explain the distinctiveness of different types of disabilities. In addition, this course will discuss how “invisible” disabilities affect those with the disability as well as those around them. Also, we will be learning about how culture and background affect our understanding of this changing environment. This course will help us to understand the diversity among us, and give sound practices for being creative and making decisions on our campuses. We will be using Universal Design principles as a way of blending our differences for a friendly and productive campus.
