We are coordinating a group of graduate students who are either disabled or who incorporate disability studies in our work. Our first meeting is next Thursday, 10/12 at 5 in the D Center located in Mary Gates 024. THERE WILL BE SNACKS! Here is a Doodle for choosing your best days of the week for future meetings: http://doodle.com/poll/4dpbpbd49nhkxb6h
Also, while we love our faculty mentors, this group is meant for grad students to share and mentor each other. A future aim of the group is to work with other disability studies-oriented orgs on campus like the ds department and d center to bring more research-focused events to campus. We would certainly open these types of events up, so stay tuned! However, everyone, regardless of status, please do pass this announcement along to your friends. If someone who is not a grad student is interested, have them email me; for example, some post docs and undergrads doing research might be a great fit.
