How can we break the systems excluding autistic people from higher education? Universities and colleges are built on systems that by nature exclude autistic students, since they're built on neurotypical foundations. As one of the few actually autistic higher education mentors for autistic students in the UK, Jorik Mol seeks to improve autistic students' lives by validating their experience and challenging universities to listen to them. Drawing from his own lived experience, and building on case studies, working alongside his mentees, Mol offers guidance on how to best support students, emphasising the need to normalise radical empathy, values-driven motivation and self-advocacy. Exploring topics including community, boundaries, and burn-out, while pushing hard against the status quo, this book is ideal reading for students of Education, Disability Studies, Sociology, Psychology, and Queer and LGBTQ+ Studies, as well as education practitioners and policymakers.
