Federal legislation has been passed to address the rights of individuals with disabilities within educational systems and workplaces. As the number of students with disabilities on college campuses increases, the higher education conversation must expand beyond meeting the basic legal requirements to include an understanding of how to make campus environments more accessible for all students, faculty, and staff, no matter their learning capabilities. Nancy J. Evans, Ellen M. Broido, Kirsten R. Brown, and Autumn K. Wilke’s text Disability in Higher Education: A Social Justice Approach does just that, challenging the reader to consider the establishment of inclusive, socially just practice that centers on the experiences of students, staff, and faculty with disabilities. The authors utilized their own experiences, research findings, and principles of social justice to provide a roadmap for higher education professionals to follow.
