Whereas rhetorics of overcoming rely on medical-model processes of diagnosis, disclosure, cure, and overcoming for individual students, coming over involves valuing disability and difference and challenging systemic issues of physical and pedagogical inaccessibility. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHitt calls for developing understandings of disability and difference that move beyond accommodation models in which students are diagnosed and remediated, instead working collaboratively--with instructors, administrators, consultants, and students themselves--to craft multimodal, universally designed writing pedagogies that meet students' access needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the CCCC Studies in Writing \u0026amp; Rhetoric (SWR) Series: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this series, the methods of studies vary from the critical to historical to linguistic to ethnographic, and their authors draw on work in various fields that inform composition--including rhetoric, communication, education, discourse analysis, psychology, cultural studies, and literature.
