Dr. Nicki Nance | Associate Professor | Beacon College

Dr. Andrea J. Marsden  | Associate Professor | Beacon College

What can we learn from neurodivergent students about adaptation, motivation, and serving others? Dr. Nicki Nance and Dr. AJ Marsden guide us through the experiences of students at Beacon College, the only school of its kind in the country designed with curriculum and support services to serve students with dyslexia, ADHD, or other specific learning disabilities.

In PART 2, Dr. Nicki and Dr. AJ elaborate on the challenges students face in higher education accessing support and resources in the classroom. We also unpack how mental health tracks with understanding ourselves as individuals (students and nonstudents alike) and the ways in which both students and institutions are adapting for the better, together.  

Let's talk about it.
