 Never ask for special treatment


For the slack line contest, competitors will have three minutes to stay on the line and complete as many tricks as possible. They will lose points if they leave the line. Simply standing on the line for three minutes instead of attempting tricks will result in a lower score than attempting a trick and falling. The festival will also include climbing clinics, student films, local vendors, a raffle and free food served all day, both days. Attending the festival and competing in the slack line competition are free. Competing in the bouldering contest costs $ 35 if participants register ahead of time and $ 40 on the day of the competition.Climbers will only need climbing shoes to compete. They can rent shoes from the recreation sports department or use their own.


've seen insensitivity expressed in two ways: First, offering examples of themselves or other disabled people who "see their disability as a gift" and "never ask for special treatment" and second, completely ignoring the disabled person's needs. My favorite example of this was when I took my sister to the Monterrey Aquarium, and I heard a mom telling her child, "Go stand in front of the lady with the wheelchair so you can see better."I have also noticed that racism and classism pile on top of disability in this way: Most people who ride public transportation around here will obey the law and give their seat to a well-dressed, white senior or disabled person — but completely ignore someone who is brown or black or in worker's clothing.


Remember that business lobbyists fought very hard against both the 1990 and 2008 acts. The Chamber of Commerce and National Federation of Independent Businesses spent millions and warned that these laws would harm businesses and unleash a flood of lawsuits. After the ADA passed, in case after case, judges ruled for businesses and against disabled individuals, basically leaving the ADA as a toothless tiger. The intent of the ADA Amendments Act of 2008 was to fix that. Sadly, the ADA would most likely fall to a Republican filibuster if it were brought to the Senate or House floor today. The Republican base would very likely demand to know where in the Constitution it says that Congress must protect Americans with disabilities and would make compliance voluntary to save businesses money. Today we have an elected United States Senator, Tea Party favorite Rand Paul, who is a vocal opponent to the ADA.
