Drawing on multiple theoretical frameworks, research, and experience creating inclusive campuses, this text offers a new framework for understanding disability using a social justice lens. Many institutions focus solely on legal access and accommodation, enabling a system of exclusion and oppression. However, using principles of universal design, social justice, and other inclusive practices, campus environments can be transformed into more inclusive and equitable settings for all constituents. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe authors consider the experiences of students, faculty, and staff with disabilities and offer strategies for addressing ableism within a variety of settings, including classrooms, residence halls, admissions and orientation, student organizations, career development, and counseling. They also expand traditional student affairs understandings of disability issues by including chapters on technology, law, theory, and disability services. Using social justice principles, the discussion spans the \u003ci\u003eentire\u003c\/i\u003e college experience of individuals with disabilities, and avoids any single-issue focus such as physical accessibility or classroom accommodations. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book will help readers: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eConsider issues in addition to access and accommodation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUse principles of universal design to benefit students and employees in academic, cocurricular, and employment settings\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUnderstand how disability interacts with multiple aspects of identity and experience.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eDespite their best intentions, college personnel frequently approach disability from the singular perspective of access to the exclusion of other important issues.

Riley College of Education and Leadership \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost books on disability in institutional settings approach the subject from a highly theoretical perspective, or they focus narrowly on legal issues. Drawing upon multiple theoretical frameworks, scholarly research, and direct experience, the authors develop a unique, social-justice-based framework that takes into consideration the lived experiences of students, faculty, and staff with disabilities. They offer proven strategies for addressing ableism within a variety of settings, including classrooms, residence halls, admissions and orientation, student organizations, career development, and counseling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNancy J.
