Mother Jones magazine just published an in-depth investigative report,
"America Promises Equality for Disabled Students. It's Failing."

6 modules showcase problems and some successes from around the country.

Online version is at

isabled-students-its-failing/

Don't want to stir up a political debate, just want to inform colleagues of
what the magazine documented. So let's not squabble about the use of the
term "disabled students" or how accessible the website is.
