UP COMING EVENTS
Disability Town Hall meeting on October 26th in Multicultural Center, Multipurpose room.
October is Disability Awareness Month and there are many activities going on around campus this month. As the Minority Student Affairs Commission on Student Senate we represent students who are traditionally under represented by the university community. One constituency we represent as a commission are students with disabilities on campus. It is important to recognize that there are students with both visible and invisible disabilities within this community. It is our hope that after this month, you as a student body will be more aware of the issues that surround having a disability. This is also a time where we make our students with disabilities aware pf the supports systems available on campus.
