Disability and the University: A Disabled Students' Manifesto is a
guide to what students with disabilities need to know about
attending university, as well as to the essentials universities
should provide for these students. Each chapter presents a
benchmark for students to follow as they travel through the
institution, and lays clear what they should expect. Written by
former students with disabilities who have traversed the terrain
and experienced higher education, this book is not about disabled
students, but instead is a manifesto, a call for change, a call to
action. It is a guide book, blueprint, and tool for both students
and universities. Disability and the University is divided into
four parts, each examining crucial aspects of higher education,
including the culture of the academy, movement beyond the limits of
compliance, access to and in the institution, and disability
rights. Each chapter is a statement of what every institution of
higher education should provide for disabled students. While every
country has its own practice and laws based on its own experience,
arbitrary national boundaries should no longer be a reason for
practices that do not meet student needs. Disability and the
University speaks across borders, and leaves no doubt about what
needs to be done to develop more inclusive teaching and learning
spaces.
