Additionally, it is the only minority group that people can join at any time (via age, accident, etc). Despite the large number of people with disabilities in the U.S. and around the world, the majority of nondisabled people are not knowledgeable about the barriers faced by people with disabilities and how to be good allies to their disabled family members, friends, and co-workers. This course will explore some of the social, structural, and medical barriers faced by people with disabilities. A Disability Studies perspective will be used to help students explore the systemic issues faced by disabled people in our society, and intersectionality will be emphasized throughout the course.

Students will produce a substantial project (research or creative) that reflects their interest in disability and their chosen vocation. Over the course of the semester, students will be mentored as they gather resources and produce work that demonstrates their understanding of disability as diversity, and they will reflect on how personal beliefs and systems of oppression impact their chosen topic.</p>');
