Students will hear from a panel of self-advocates and athletes from the Special Olympics who have all participated in a postsecondary program and will speak about their experiences in classrooms and on campus as individuals with disabilities.
They'll share what they need from you, their peers, to be successful on campus and provide insight and information about what being a person with a disability on a college campus looks and feels like.
Self-advocates and athletes from Special Olympics Wisconsin are individuals with disabilities who have competed in athletics through the Special Olympics and are now providing educational, informational and training opportunities for their communities.
The first 100 participants will receive a Spread the Word: Inclusion t-shirt!
There is also a faculty/staff session at 11 a.m.
