Description
Join a growing community of scholars who approach their work through a disability studies perspective! The UW Disability Studies Program invites faculty, graduate students, and staff from across the university to a meet-and-greet event to learn about the Disability Studies Program and to connect with others who have similar interests. Everyone is welcome, whether you currently integrate a disability studies perspective in your research, teaching, and advising or would simply like to learn more. We are actively working to develop and strengthen an interdisciplinary community of scholars who collaborate, educate, and promote a deeper understanding of disability in the academy and the community.
