How is the attitude toward neurodivergence in higher education? (thelemmy.club)

Thinking about goin back 2 skool, but I’m autistic and have a lot of executive functioning problems and was wondering if anyone here knows if much has changed in the last decade…

Came across this thread which wasn’t too inspiring. Is this actually a representative sample though? I have enough neurotypicals in my life complaining that they don’t get to leave me to die in a ditch already.

Because it I’m just gonna get lectured on how my autism is just me being lazy then I’d rather just keep driving the bus for the rest of my life.

I'd be more surprised if postsecondary wasn't viciously ableist. Never seen any evidence to the contrary, and seen neurodiverse comrades trampled by the workload, demands and occasional shitty profs.

Western "education" how-compelling
