KevinÌýDarcy successfully defended his dissertation, "An Ethnography of Disability in Academia: Stories of Crip Time, Cripping Independence and the Cognitive Load of Disability." Kevin examines the experiences of people with disabilities in academia. It is oriented autoethnographically by Kevin's own experiences, and those of other students and faculty, to make vivid the phenomenological realities of living on crip time, navigating independence, the cognitive load of disability, and disclosure management. Kevin's committee is Professor Kate Goldfarb (chair), Professor Donna Goldstein, Professor Terry McCabe, Professor Alison Cool, and Professor Christine Sargent (University of Colorado Denver Department of Anthropology).
Congratulations, Kevin!
