The Center for Teaching and Learning will offer Supporting Students with Autism on Friday, November 15th from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM on the Newburgh Campus in Kaplan Hall 231.

Dr. Brown will address ways to work with students on the spectrum, to deal with possible classroom issues, and provide helpful strategies to increase learning and address difficult behaviors.

The increasing numbers of students on the autism spectrum entering post-secondary education present higher education institutions with challenges previously not at issue. Impacts outside of the academic realm may be unique for College faculty and staff to consider. Academic and Student Services offices are sometimes faced with behavior management and conduct issues, sensory and stress management issues. Students with autism spectrum disorders sometimes do not disclose until there is a problem: therefore pro-active, campus wide training and awareness is critical for a successful interface between the institution and student.
