Communities of Access: A Program Profile of the University of Central Florida's Faculty Liaison Program in the Department of Writing and Rhetoric
Wheeler, Stephanie K.
Composition Forum, v39 Sum 2018
This program profile will describe how the University of Central Florida's Student Accessibility Services' (SAS) Faculty Liaison program functions in the Department of Writing and Rhetoric. The Liaison Program served to provide an intermediary between departments and SAS so faculty may brainstorm accommodations with colleagues familiar with their field, department, and courses in ways that do not fundamentally alter their course goals and objectives. Ultimately, what emerged from this program is the idea that access is and must be regarded as a networked practice in order for transformative access work to occur. Access, like writing, needs to be understood as a way to move among different communities of practice.
