The process of providing students with disabilities access to an education that is of appropriate quality is still a relatively new endeavor. Students with disabilities benefit from the support of family, educators, and many other professionals addressing the inequality that is faced in school. Ultimately, progress has been achieved from persistent advocacy. Bringing the issues faced by students with disabilities in their education to court has evidently led to legislative outcomes that aim to overcome the obstacles faced by these students. It is evident that although advocacy and representation of students with disabilities has led to meaningful change yet there is still a substantial way to go. Specifically in the context of higher education, legislation needs to better address issues that arise in post-secondary schooling and beyond the K-12 experience. Current legislation provides a variety of safeguards and a foundation that can be used as precedent in the higher education sector but does not directly address the problems that may be occurring at the higher education level that are not apparent in K-12.
