This course is an interdisciplinary exploration of the sociocultural construct of disability. Disabilities Studies views disability as part of the normal range of human experiences and explores disability as a cultural, rather than individual, phenomenon that results from disabling social interactions. Students will examine changes in social perceptions regarding disability and the impact on the lives of people with disabilities.
