Infinite Connection: A Neurodivergent Student Group

The group is for enrolled 澳门金沙线上赌博官网 students who identify as neurodivergent. Neurodivergent (ND) means having a mind that functions in ways which diverge significantly from the dominant societal standards of “normal.” The group aims to be inclusive of students who identify with autism, 难语症, ADHD or who otherwise identify as neurodivergent. The group is also accepting of students who are questioning a neurodivergent identity.

The group adopts the notion that conditions like autism, 难语症, and ADHD should be regarded as naturally occurring cognitive variations with distinctive strengths that have contributed to the evolution of technology and culture, rather than mere checklists of deficits and dysfunctions

Participants share and discuss their experiences of being ND students on campus and explore strategies for navigating through challenges.
