I was invited to return to my college, California State University Northridge, to witness the Student Recognition awards being given out this year. Twenty years ago, I was one of the recipients.It included scholarship money donated by a community or campus organization. I recall mine being presented by the Panhellenic Council. While I was not a member of a sorority, I was still happy about receiving my recognition from the active college sisters. I felt that my drive to succeed and nearly taking enough Women's Studies courses to be minoring in it, that we were idealogically connected at the least.

I should be clear, the awards are given annually by the University's Center on Disabilities. I can tell, the support provided by this administrative service department of such a hugely diverse Southern California university has grown. The depth of feeling that students feel for its staff - that they would often call its greatest power, Love - makes the Center on Disabilities more than just an office on campus serving accessibility needs.
