Event Information

Erica Schelly and Megan Wolff

This presentation will highlight the growing need for campus-wide personnel to develop an understanding of students on the Autism Spectrum (ASD) and to cultivate strategies and approaches to support these students in a higher education setting.

We will address common misperceptions, strengths, and challenges of students with ASD on a college campus, provide case examples of some of these students within multiple domains of college life, and outline campus resources for students with ASD.

Finally, simple tips, and strategies for anyone in higher education working with students with ASD will be discussed.
