Dineen Hall, 342 and Virtual (See event details)
The Center for Teaching and Learning Excellence (CTLE) invites the Syracuse University community to participate in a book club discussion of Jay Dolmage’s Academic Ableism: Disability and Higher Education. Academic Ableism explores how disability is created and treated in higher education. It also considers the impact of accommodation processes, architecture, and popular culture, and argues that building more inclusive universities provides everyone with a better education.
CTLE will facilitate two Academic Ableism book club meetings led by Professor Cora True-Frost and Professor Katherine Macfarlane. CART services will be provided. Attendees may participate in person or via Zoom. Lunch will be available for in-person attendees. Space is limited to 20 for this student group. Please sign up by February 3, 2025.
Academic Ableism is available in open access.
