In this episode, Hunter Hornsby, one of our research interns, invited Gavin Steiger, Director of Disability Services at Texas State University, to join us. They unpack what it means to have a disability and how to ensure proper accommodations at higher education institutions. Gavin shares his personal experience with disability and how this has influenced his work on accessibility at colleges and universities. Hunter and Gavin emphasize the importance of mental and physical disability accommodations and eliminating unintentional barriers, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, for overall student success in higher education.
