    Extractions: 31, no. 1 (Fall 1999): 49-53 To the Editor Search Table of Contents Previous Article ... Works Cited TOLERANCE is an ethical objective most of us would support as a broadly informing principle of literary and language studies. The question of how to achieve tolerance is, of course, more challenging, requiring as it does strategies and approaches that both engage students and produce results. Although the teaching of tolerance often takes place in a classroom setting in interactions among individual teachers and students, broader institutional structures and developments inform what we might imagine as a tolerant academic community. My intent here is to describe the emergence and the content of what I call the new disability studies, an emerging field of critical inquiry in literary and language studies that is contributing to forging a more tolerant academic community. By considering the development and goals of this new field, we can better understand what actually constitutes tolerance and how it might operate in academe. Tolerance is defined in Webster's New Riverside University Dictionary as "recognition of and respect for the opinions, practices, or behaviors of others." This definition implies that tolerating others has three elements: first, that the others are present so that they can be tolerated; second, that those who are becoming tolerant understand "the opinions, practices, or behavior" of those they learn to tolerate; third, that this recognition leads to respect. The essence of tolerance, such a definition suggests, is inclusion. By this I mean including not just the presence but also the perspective of others.

    Extractions: e-mail: wheaton.3@osu.edu Disability studies seeks to study the nature, meaning, and consequences of disability in global culture from an integrated social, political, cultural model. It incorporates historical, phenomenological, political, cultural, medical, sociological, technological, educational, and legal perspectives in order to provide an enriched and coherent view of disability as part of universal human experience, by understanding and analyzing disability as a phenomenon that simultaneously manifests itself at the bodily, person, and societal levels. The minor is designed to provide a context for understanding the meaning and experience of difference in society by requiring students to examine how disability intersects gender, race, class, age, and sexuality as well.

54. Integrating Disability Studies
    Disability Support Services, Montgomery College, MD Integrating disability studies Into Existing Curriculum, by Rose Sachs, LCSW-C.  
    http://www.mc.cc.md.us/Departments/dispsvc/diversity.htm
    
    Extractions: A critical factor that separates persons with disabilities from other minority groups is that anyone may join at any time; minority status may or may not be conferred at birth. Although not the case globally, the largest population of individuals with disabilities in the United States is the elderly. Most everyone, then, if s/he lives long enough, will, indeed, become disabled. Because membership is a clear and almost inevitable prospect; because the social identity of people with disabilities is one of stigma; because people with disabilities are devalued, discredited, and discounted, and because the prevailing image of people with disabilities, which is internalized by both disabled and non-disabled persons, is wholly negative, fear evoked by disability is pervasive throughout history and across cultures. Disability Studies According to Robert Funk (1987), "historically, the inferior economic and social status of disabled people has been viewed as the inevitable consequence of the physical and mental differences imposed by disability." The underlying premise of Disability Studies is that the barriers to integration faced by disabled people are not inevitable, but rather, the result of discriminatory practices and policies that arise from unfounded stereotypes, erroneous assumptions, negative perceptions and, thus, deeply rooted prejudice toward disabled people (Funk, 1987). The barriers to a full range of life's opportunities are socially, not inherently, constructed. Disability Studies distinguishes between the demands of an impairment, a biological reality, and the effects of disability within a social, political, and economic context.

Based at Temple University in Philadelphia, with contributors from coast to coast. Check out our 'Notable Blogs' list below - your portal to the disability blog world. While clicking around the excellent The Voices Recordings map at the BBC site, I lucked onto the dot over Edinburgh. Each dot on the map leads to a page of sound files of people conversing in that placeso you hear Scots women in Ayrshire talking about shoes, or a family of Kentish fishermen talking about the weather, that kind of thing. They're usually talking about language, whether it's quirks of local vocabulary or accents or the power of certain epithets. Anyway, the Edinburgh dot brings you to a page with five sound files of three actors with cerebral palsy, discussing disability terminology and disability culture. James McSharry, Robyn Hunt, and Malawi Logan are the wonderfully candid, articulate, and frank participantsif you get a chance, have a listen. On childhood taunts, for example, McSharry says, "Somewhere along the line, that language creates a stereotype that it's ok to throw a stone at me."

This year, the conference continues its custom of bringing together scholars, researchers, teachers, and agents of social change, all united through their interest in theorizing, politicizing, and reconceptualizing disability within the fields of education and rehabilitation.
