About the Award
In recognition of IU Indianapolis staff, faculty and administrators who go “above and beyond” to ensure that students with disabilities enjoy all of the benefits of campus life possible. Working closely with the professionals in Adaptive Educational Services, these advocates work behind the scenes to remove obstacles so that students with disabilities receive the appropriate accommodations in order to succeed. Each year, the recipients of the Advocate for Equity in Accessibility Award will be acknowledged publicly. Their names will be added to a permanently mounted plaque in the hallway of Taylor Hall, named for Joseph Taylor, IU Indianapolis’s first Dean of Liberal Arts, a vocal supporter of students with disabilities.
