The offices of Disability Resources, Multicultural Life and Diversity, and Institutional Equity and Inclusion will host a SUNY Cortland Disability Pride campaign during the 2026-27 academic year.
“We know that people with disabilities strengthen the campus community and we want to highlight their accomplishments, experiences and perspectives,” said Jeremy Zhe-Heimerman, associate director of disability resources of the new partnership.
“As part of this campaign, we are looking for disabled and neurodivergent students, faculty and staff who may be willing to tell their stories to the campus community,” he said.
To self-nominate and contribute your story for the SUNY Cortland Disability Pride campaign, please fill out this form by Tuesday, Nov. 25.
Faculty and students in the Communication and Media Studies, English, and Art and Art History departments will work with these volunteers to produce stories and pictures acknowledging the contributions of campus community members with disabilities or neurodivergence.
Organizers — with a plan to share those stories throughout the next academic year — put out a call for nominations at the recent Student Conference on Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Social Justice on Nov. 1 and continue to seek nominations within the campus community.
