Taulbee Survey Reports on Students with Disabilities

We are excited that the Computing Research Association's annual Taulbee Survey reported on the participation of students with disabilities in computing departments for the first time this year. After a feasibility study determined that a sufficient number of departments could report on the number of their students that receive accommodations, the questions were included and between one-third to one-half of the departments could offer information.

Based on this data, less than 1% of both master's and Ph.D. students received accommodations and 4.1% of undergraduate majors received disability-related accommodations. This information was pulled from the table on page 80 of the report.
