Accessibility for Marquette faculty: A conversation about disability, Feb. 15

ADVANCE is sponsoring a workshop that addresses the topic of accessibility for faculty with disabilities at Marquette on Wednesday, Feb. 15, from noon to 1 p.m. at the 707 Hub.

Dr. Jason Farr, associate professor of English in the Klingler College of Arts and Sciences, will be joined by Dr. Leah Flack, chair and professor of English in the Klingler College of Arts and Sciences and co-director of the Institute for Women’s Leadership, and Lisa Ploszaj, senior human resources generalist, to discuss the rich cultural value of disability as well as how to create more accessible, welcoming environments for disabled faculty, guest speakers and job candidates. This will foster a dialogue about how to work toward more accessible and equitable workplace environments. 

A virtual option will be available. Register for the workshop online before Tuesday, Feb. 14.
