Almost a month ago now, the Disability Services office hosted their annual awards ceremony. At this ceremony, our office honors students, faculty, and staff for all the hard work and dedication that they have to inclusion on campus. Not to mention a dedication to their academics, and to their own personal development.<\/p>\n

Access Awards\u00a0 <\/strong><\/h1>\n

The first award category that we want to recognize is that of Access Awards. Everyone on campus, not just the Disability Services office, is responsible for providing access and services for students with disabilities. When DS staff meet with students on pre-admission visits, the students are made aware that disability access is a priority here and that the faculty and staff members work diligently to accommodate students with disabilities. Each year DS staff present Access Awards to members of the Ball State community who go above and beyond in providing access.<\/p>\n

\"\"Anna Arison <\/strong>is the Assistant Director of Purchasing Services and is a huge support for our office on all fronts, especially when it comes to purchasing accessible furniture for our campus. Additionally, Anna is keenly aware of issues related to disabilities and is an advocate for all. Through our great partnership with Anna, we can provide the best quality support for our students.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"Alex Schull <\/strong>is a Purchasing Services Materials Handler\u00a0Supervisor and is another huge support for our office. Like Anna, Alex is a helpful to our office in many ways, but especially regarding accessible furniture. He, too, is keenly aware of issues related to disability and is always ready to help. Our partnership with him and his office ensures the upmost support for our students.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"Natah Hughes <\/strong>is the Hotel Desk Coordinator and is an invaluable resource for all things Student Center. For most, she is often the first stop for people coming into the Student Center (with or without a disability) who has a question. She goes above and beyond to help all people and answers all questions that they might have.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"Betsy Kiel <\/strong>is a WGS Graduate Assistant as well as a DS Employee. She is fiercely passionate about all things disability and equality related and has been instrumental in the DS office, especially with our growth in student population. Not only does Betsy teach in WGS, but she often assists students with accommodations often.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"Kyla Whitehair <\/strong>is an Assistant Lecturer of\u00a0Mathematical Sciences. In this role she teaches MATH 125, a course that many (if not the majority) of Ball State students must enroll in. Because of this, she often interacts and teaches many students who receive accommodations\u2014but she also goes above and beyond to refer students to our office and personally ensure that a connection is made. She also often consults with our office about accommodation issues that may arise.<\/p>\n

<\/h1>\n

<\/h1>\n

Accessible Teacher Award <\/strong><\/h1>\n

The next award we wanted to recognize is that of our Accessible Teacher Award. Disability Services solicits feedback from students each year about teachers who they believe have gone above and beyond to make their classes accessible. The faculty members who have won this award are some of Ball State\u2019s best and toughest. They don\u2019t make their classes easy for students; they make their classes accessible for students. Based on a nomination from Katie Witte, we have Ann Reichle, an Assistant Lecturer of Accounting. as the winner of this year\u2019s Accessible Teacher award. Here is an excerpt from Katie\u2019s nomination:<\/p>\n

\"\"\u201cI chose to nominate Ann Reichle because she goes above and beyond to accommodate students with a Disability Services letter. While all professors are required to accommodate students with letters, Ann never makes you jump through hoops to use your accommodations. She has never given me a reason to feel discriminated against or not feel welcome in her classroom. She is always helpful and remindful of due dates, test dates, and other important deadlines. Overall, she is a great professor and I recommend her to anybody and everybody.\u201d<\/p>\n

Here is what Ann Reichle had to say about her nomination: \u201cI just want to thank you Katie, and the fact that this is a student nominated award means a tremendous amount to me. My mother taught students with disabilities for over 25 years, so this also means a great deal to my family. Also, I just want to thank Disability Services for their hard work and support for what we\u2019re trying to do as professors. All the time, I get to hear from professors from other campuses about how far above we, at Ball State, stand in terms of our accessibility and enhancing our diversity as a student population. I am very proud to be a part of Ball State for that reason.\u201d<\/p>\n

Laura J. Kraska Awards <\/strong><\/h1>\n

For our next award, our office once again has the honor of presenting the Laura K. Kraska awards. The Kraska family has provided a generous gift to Ball State in memory of Laura Kraska. Laura received her bachelor\u2019s degree from Ball State in 1990 and her master\u2019s degree in 1993 in Information & Communication Sciences. Laura had low vision and benefited greatly from the services provided by Disability Services. Each year students with visual impairments receive Kraska awards. Students who have done well in the classroom and who have been active members of the Ball State community are selected.<\/p>\n

Larry is still a tremendous supporter of Disability Services. He is now the director of the Fehribach Center at Eskenazi Health which provides paid internships for college students with physical disabilities.<\/p>\n

The award is named after Max Adamson, a student who attended Ball State from 1976-1985 who was key in helping Ball State achieve the level of accessibility it has today. Although he passed away years ago, his memory thrives in those who knew him.
