Reply to question: How have the IDS courses shaped your perspective of disability? 

“Through pursuing a minor in Interdisciplinary Disability Studies, I have been able to see that the society that we currently live in does not adequately reflect all of the people who live and interact in it every day. It is our responsibility to find a solution and actively shape our environment so that it is easily accessible and works for all humans, not only a select few.”
