Howard,

Subject: [Athen] ATHEN/AHG dinner meeting at CSUN - Thursday, March 2, 7:30
pm
Dear Colleagues:
As per previous years, I'd like to hold a dinner/meeting at the Harbor House
(behind the Grand Hyatt) on Thursday evening (7:30 p.m.), March 2, at CSUN
(International Technology and Persons with Disabilities Conference) for
dinner and for ATHEN members (or others) to provide their input on this
year's Accessing Higher Ground conference. Please let me know if you plan to
attend so I can guestimate the right size table.
Note about dinner/meeting time: I know in past years there's been a Tweet-up
event in the evening on Thursday. As a result we've met a little later -
about 8:15 in the past. I don't see anything in the schedule (about any
evening events except the Tuesday keynote). Anyway, we can always move the
meeting time back a bit if there's a conflicting event.
NEA grant on Promoting the Integration of Universal Design into University
Curricula (UDUC) ? Focus on National Dissemination
I don't know how many of you remember the UDUC project from a few years ago
but a nationally directed version of the project was funded for 2017 - 2018.
I'd like to get your input on strategies for carrying out the objective of
the project - increasing the teaching of UD and accessibility related
content in design and tech classes. I.e. what's the best way to reach
faculty and what training/resources would most contribute to achieving the
goal of the project.
I'll probably schedule this meeting at around Thursday6:30, before the
ATHEN/AHG meeting, either at the hotel cafe or at the Harbor House. Let me
know if you're interested in participating. I may schedule some other times
for this during the week.
See you next week.
Regards,
Howard
