Paving a Way Disabled in STEM - with Dr. Anita Marshall

Guest Dr. Anita Marshall joins hosts Keith and Maddie to talk about her work to make STEM more accessible for students with disabilities. As someone who acquired a disability later in life, she realized how ableist and inaccessible higher education really was. Anita created the first-ever disability-accessible planetary geoscience field course and mentoring program, GeoSPACE, and is the Executive Director of The International Association for Geoscience Diversity. We discuss collective disability knowledge, debunk myths about academia, and gush about our love for universal accessibility. We hope you enjoy the episode!  Show Notes and Resources: Dr. Anita Marshall's Website GeoSPACE Program The International Association for Geoscience Diversity
