Students spend much of their day sitting in classrooms, and the comfort, placement, and size of those seats has a real affect on how we learn. Join Dr. Kate Drabinski and students from her spring activism class for a presentation and discussion about campus furniture, accessibility, and what it takes to make our classrooms accessible for all.
