Abstract
This casebook is intended as a companion to the book Disability Inclusion: Disability as Diversity, which offers a practical guide to eliminating barriers to student success and fostering a culture of true inclusion for people with disabilities in academic settings. It addresses the most salient questions facing faculty, staff, and disability resource professionals (DRP). This casebook serves as a partner to the original text, providing thoughtful review of scenarios, informed by a compilation of real-life experiences. While this casebook is useful as a companion, it also benefits the reader as a stand-alone tool for workshopping potential scenarios among disability staff and as a tool for faculty training. It can also be used to increase awareness among medical, nursing, and health sciences students in classes that discuss disability, improving the climate for disabled individuals in education and employment.
