About this Event
"This session gives an inside look into what it’s like to go through the process of discovering, getting diagnosed for, and finally getting accommodations for common learning disabilities and other “invisible” disabilities. This includes both challenges the presenter has personally faced and a broader look at structural equity problems that still persist today. The session also covers examples of academic evaluation methods that can be accidentally inequitable for students who have learning disabilities but are themselves unaware or unable to obtain proper documentation. The session concludes with proposals for making Whitman more accommodating of neurodiversity and learning disabilities.Potentially distressing content warning: PTSD, Sexual Assault" This session will be live-streamed and recorded.
