This might be of interest to some of you.  I know I posted this a week or so ago.  Now it is official.  I still receive mail from NEIU.

Subject: (Dis)ability Project Launch April 9

We want Northeastern to become a university of choice for students with disabilities, to attract students to our University because we recognize not only the diversity of our student population, but the diversity of our learning styles. Learn what you can do to make this happen and come to the launch of the Northeastern (Dis)ability Project resource guide for faculty and staff members.

Special guest speaker Isabel Garcia, president of Parent to Parent of Miami, Fla., will talk about how Northeastern can support Latino students with disabilities in the transition from K-12 to higher education.

Mark your calendar now! Join us from 9:00 am to 12:00 noon on Thursday, April 9, 2015 in Alumni Hall North. Coffee and pastries will be served. Please RSVP to d-lawson1 at neiu.edu to show your support for Northeastern students across the ability spectrum.
