<\/h3>\nTitle: <\/strong>Assistant Professor of English<\/p>\n University: <\/strong>Sam Houston State University<\/p>\n Description of Work:<\/strong><\/p>\n I\u2019m a multiply disabled, queer composition and rhetoric scholar whose work in health and medicine is at the intersections of disability, queer, feminist, and cultural rhetorics. I\u2019m currently working on projects that center disabled folks in conversations about health rhetoric, often with my collaborator Dr. Leslie Anglesey.<\/p>\n The essay I\u2019m working on for this conference is about the rhetorics of shit–in the most literal sense. Leslie Anglesey and I have analyzed a number of Web 2.0 Resources, ostensibly designed for disabled patients with gastrointestinal symptoms, and we argue that these resources stigmatize patients with poop-related symptoms, frequently fail to address day-to-day life with these symptoms, and are ultimately inaccessible because of their insistence on sanitized language.<\/p>\n Our other work in progress similarly looks at web resources, but focuses on mental health on college and university campuses across the country. Our coding suggests that these resources are used to paint institutions of higher learning as benevolent in matters of mental health, while downplaying how these same institutions are detrimental to student mental health.<\/p>\n Socials:<\/strong><\/p>\n Twitter @AdamHubrig<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Adam Hubrig Title: Assistant Professor of English University: Sam Houston State University Description of Work: I\u2019m a multiply disabled, queer composition and rhetoric scholar whose work in health and medicine … Continue reading Adam Hubrig<\/span>
