3. Disability Services in High School vs Disability Services in College

College administration has been supportive of increasing the number of students with disabilities accessing campus programs. I am in the process of estalbishing a DSS Advisory Committee with the goal of having mostly members external to the college but involved with education and employment of people with disaiblities. As soon as this committee has been established I will post on the Wiki the names and the organizations they represent. I will also post our minutes so that you are aware of the major issues, concerns and any action this group proposes.
