A University Recruits Students with Disabilities the Way Some Institutions Go After Athletes.
Reisberg, Leo
Chronicle of Higher Education, v44 n25 pA45-A46 Feb 27 1998
Middle Tennessee State University actively recruits students with disabilities, and students in this category have increased from 115 to 708 since 1985, despite a relatively small budget. The student-disabilities office focuses on recruitment, program provision, accessibility, and trouble-shooting. Some accessibility problems persist, despite the campus' flat terrain. (MSE)
