In Their Own Words:
Survey completed by Jackie Burke 4/06:
Does your school have any specialized services - for instance, a facilitated support group, organizational support, communication and advocacy with professors, or support for students to have work experience - for students with Asperger Syndrome and related conditions, such as Autism or Pervasive Developmental Disorder-Not Otherwise Specified?
"No"
Does your school offer any kind of supports that might be of help to a student with Asperger Syndrome? If so, with which student population(s) in mind were they created (for example, students with learning disabilities)? Please describe those programs and services.
"Individual advising/coaching through Learning Services office, which deals with students who have learning disabilities, attentional issues, and other challenges (Tourette's)."
Do you have any counselors or other personnel on staff with specialized training in supporting students with Asperger Syndrome or other Autism Spectrum Disorders? Please describe.
"My colleague and I recently attended a day-long workshop on Asperger's and non-verbal LD, given by Dean J.M. Mooney, founder of the Maple Leaf Clinic in Southern Vermont."
Do you have any counselors on staff with experience supporting social skills and facilitating social integration?
"No - but we have a referral list of local counselors/therapists."
Are single residence hall rooms available on campus for students with Asperger Syndrome or other conditions that can lead to discomfort sharing personal space?
"All of our dormitories are suites, with single bedrooms and shared common space - living room, kitchen, and bathroom. There are a couple of 2 person suites; most are shared by 4-5 students."
