Abstract	Information in this guidebook is designed to assist student leaders and student activities staff who are involved in planning campus programming to make campus activities accessible and inclusive, increase involvement of students with disabilities in student life activities, and promote positive change in the frequency and/or nature of interaction between students with and without disabilities. Part 1 of the guidebook discusses barriers to student life. Part 2, "Planning Accessible Activities," provides guidelines for creating accessible campus activities with regard to the physical, informational, programmatic, and attitudinal environments. Part 3, "Infusing Disability Perspectives," describes new models for understanding disability and outlines strategies for including an array of disability experiences in campus programming. The following part, "Developing Access Initiatives," provides a structure to facilitate development of an Access Initiative, a concrete plan for putting newly acquired knowledge into action. The last two parts provide references, additional resources, and an index. Journal articles, and essays, resource books and literature, periodicals and journals, videotapes and other non-print media, and Internet resources are provided. (CR)
