Autism Goes To College

EPISODE 49: It hits different on campus when autism is in the news

Autism Goes To College

This fall there's been a firehose of autism news --  stirring up old controversies, confusing parents and families, impacting students on the spectrum now at college, and even challenging autism researchers. In this special episode, host Katharine O'Brien talks with Dr. Katherine Meltzoff, professor of education at UCRiverside and director of the SEARCH Family Autism Resource Center about how teaching and learning about autism is being impacted and how students on the spectrum are faring. Big picture, one possible outcome could be a re-segmenting the autism spectrum.
