麻省湾过渡学者项目简介 社区学院日报
“在麻萨诸塞州, higher education opportunities 是 opening up for students with autism and intellectual disabilities.”
“New legislation requires the state’s public colleges to provide accommodations for people whose disabilities have impeded them from earning a standard high school diploma. This means these students can take classes and participate in extracurricular activities as nondegree-seeking students without having to pass a college entrance exam, meet GPA requirements and pass other barriers to admission.”
“Massachusetts Bay Community College 总统 David Podell advocated for the legislation. He has a background in psychology, with a specialty in the 是a of disabilities. And his college has helped people with intellectual disabilities since before he became president.”
