DS 200 - Introduction to Disability Studies

Disability Studies understands disability as referring not only to a biological or medical condition, but also to a community of people (the largest minority in the U.S.); to a civil rights movement; to a complex set of social and ethical issues; to a universal human experience; and to the ways cultures respond to different bodies, minds, and behaviors. The class will help students understand disability in its social, cultural, and ethical dimensions.
