Supporting Neurodivergent Students (September 2023)

Presented by John Caldora (University of Kentucky)

Campuses across the country (including Texas A&M) are seeing an increase in students with autism. Autistic students come to campus academically prepared but are sometimes challenged by the lack of structure, large campus size, and ambiguity of social cues in our environment. John will provide insights on how to best support autistic students in the classroom and campus from his experience as both an autistic adult and a disability resource professional. View the Supporting Neurodivergent Students webinar
