“Topic A” stands for awareness, anxiety and accessibility on Wednesday, Oct. 11.

Anxiety is the focus of that day’s Disability Awareness Symposium, which is held annually in conjunction with the Accessibility Technology Fair. The symposium will be from noon to 1 p.m. in the multipurpose room of the Student Community Center, and the accessibility fair — with technology vendors — will be from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the same room. The symposium and fair are for students, staff and faculty.
