The Office of the Provost is pleased to announce a Disability Scholarship Initiative Research Findings Webinar on Monday, May 11, 9-10 am. The Disability Scholarship Initiative supports new scholarship aimed to better understand and address the concerns of faculty and staff on the Ann Arbor campus who have a disability. Details about the initiative, the funded research projects, and summaries of the presentations can be found on the provost’s website.

This webinar features preliminary findings from two of the six funded projects:

Professor Joy Knoblauch of the Taubman College of Architecture & Urban Planning will present What does a quiet work space look like? Visualizing faculty and staff preferences at the University of Michigan.

Professor Michael McKee and his colleague Saumya Gupta of Michigan Medicine will present Michigan Medicine workplace equity for individuals with disabilities.

We hope you can join us to learn more about this important work that will directly benefit the U-M campus. Questions about the initiative should be directed to VPS.Academic.Faculty.Affairs@umich.edu.

Registration is required. Register here by May 8. https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/track/event/session/109571
