Faculty, Staff, Students

October is Disability Awareness Month, a time to celebrate diversity, inclusion, and the importance of accessibility for all. Join us as we highlight the experiences of individuals with disabilities and explore the barriers they continue to face. This year’s event features a short film following a student in a wheelchair navigating the challenges of studying abroad in countries where accessibility is not always prioritized. Through this story, we hope to spark conversation, raise awareness, and inspire action toward creating a more inclusive world. After the film, stick around for a brief discussion and enjoy our popcorn bar! Everyone is welcome to attend and take part in this important dialogue.
