This course encompasses many aspects of United States disability rights, laws, and policies, with particular emphasis on the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) which regulates employment, state and local governments, transportation, and public accommodations. Readings, lectures, and other disability studies materials will provide context for the covered legal issues. All materials are posted to the course website. Your grade will be determined by a 15-20 page research and reflection paper.

I am happy to meet with you at a mutually convenient time to discuss class, papers, jobs, life, etc. Please email me to make an appointment: mastein@law.harvard.edu. I am also available to review two drafts of your paper.

Note: This course is not available for cross-registration.
