Ann Cook-Graver, senior attorney for the Office for Civil Rights (U.S. Department of Education) in Chicago, will visit NDSU to speak about academic adjustments and accommodations for college students with disabilities on Thursday, Feb. 25, at 9 a.m. in the Memorial Union Hidatsa room.
Cook-Graver will talk about federal policy, legislation and case law that guide work with students who have disabilities. According to Jennifer Erickson, NDSU disability specialist, there's a great deal of diversity within the area of disability, which offers many rewards and opportunities to engage in effective decision-making strategies to serve this unique and heterogeneous group of individuals.
