• A daily information table in the Rat 
• Perspectives on Disability discussion open to students, faculty, staff and community members
• Assistive Technology demonstrations of the most frequently used software and devices 
• Special Hearts Dance sponsored by Kinney Senior Services/Independent Living Program
• Nothing to Hide:  Family Diversity Photo Exhibit cosponsored by Student Disability Services, Counseling Center and Multicultural Affairs
• Related displays in the Rhodes Bookstore and Barret Library

A schedule of the 2008 Disability Awareness Week events will be available in early September.
