Jon Henner Memorial Accessibility in Games Speaker Series: Opening Event
October 17 @ 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Everyone is welcome to join us for the opening event on October 17, 4-6 pm in our speaker series themed around how accessibility and video gaming go together. This speaker series is held in memoriam of Jon Henner. Henner was a professor in the Interpreting, Deaf Education and Advocacy department at UNCG, and unfortunately passed away from cancer in 2023.
Henner was a gamer and planned to host an event like this on campus with the Network for the Cultural Study of Video-gaming. The first event in this series will give participants a chance to see the Esports Arena, and play games related to accessibility, or games that have great accessibility features. October 24th will be when we host our first speaker – Sky LaRell Anderson from the University of St. Thomas.
