About Elizabeth Hamblet
Elizabeth C. Hamblet has worked both ends of the college transition. She began her career as a high school special education teacher and then began working at the college level in the late 1990s. She is now at her third university, working in a disability services office as a learning consultant. In 2008, recognizing that too many people didn’t know about the changes awaiting students with disabilities at college, Elizabeth began offering programs to families and professionals on how to prepare students for the transition. She is also a contributing writer for Disability Compliance for Higher Education, and her work has appeared in numerous other journals and online platforms. Elizabeth’s latest book edition Seven Steps to College Success: A Pathway for Students with Disabilities, is published by Rowman & Littlefield.
