This Is What Disability Looks Like: College Experiences through the Eyes of Students with Disabilities
Kaycee L. Bills
About Campus, v29 n3 p25-28 2024
It can be tough to talk about disabilities. However, when we avoid talking about it, we ignore a huge piece of someone's personal identity. This identity is complex, multifaceted, and requires a unique set of needs. It is important that students with disabilities are heard. When living with a disability, society can often have lower expectations of what we can do in comparison to our non-disabled counterparts. In this article, the author describes a few of the stories and assumptions people with disabilities experience every day on college campuses due to their unique characteristics. In telling these stories, the author demonstrates how students with disabilities are constantly trying to prove that they are more than just their disability.
