Back in the beginning of October the new accessibility center on Studley Campus had an event to celebrate the naming of the building, Mark A Hill Accessibility Center.
I attended this great event and was fortunate enough to meet the parents of Mark A Hill (a Dalhousie student who was in a car accident which left him paralyzed). Through attending the event, meeting Mark's wonderful parents, meeting the staff who work at the center, and current students who have and will use the center it was wonderful to see that Dalhousie is working to be as inclusive as possible for our students.
I also addressed the audience on behalf of all Dalhousie students and thanked the donors and Mark's parents for their wonderful contributions.
I wanted to post this event on my blog because it was a great event to be a part of and having an accessibility center at Dalhousie is very important, even though the event did happen a few weeks ago.
