Our guidance sets out what higher education providers must do to comply with equality law. Waiting for a student to come forward and ask for reasonable adjustments is not enough. Universities need to proactively support their disabled students. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cj31…

🙏🏿Take the time to watch this in honor of #MichaelaDePrince. Though she grew up in the ashes of unimaginable horror, pain, & tragedy, like dust she rose. Fo her life to end so abruptly at the age of 29 is heart wrenching. How can life be so cruel!😔💔💔😞
