Extra Credit Opportunity

The monthly The Brownbag Series on Diversity is in LSF 144 this Wednesday, March 25, at noon.

Jodi James, the Disability Services Coordinator at PNC, will present "Diversity in Disability," which will look at the diversity of characteristics and effects caused by various disabilities that are seen in higher education classrooms. Students within various disability categories have unique characteristics that follow them into the classroom. Jodi will look at these effects and how they can be accommodated so that a student's knowledge is not filtered through their disability. Students and faculty both can learn why certain students are accommodated and how these accommodations work to bring students with disabilities to the same level as their peers.

This extra credit assignment is worth 10 points.
