The cover features bold colors and bold, oversize typography. Against a black background the word ACADEMIC is written in white and the word ABLEISM in red. The cover is not wide enough to accommodate the size of these words, so the words are intentionally broken: ACA-, then below this DEMIC, then below this ABLE-and then ISM (suggesting among other things that something in academia is broken). To the left is a small photograph of the sculpture Untitled (Spiral Staircase) by Peter Coffin. The sculpture consists of metal stairs that go nowhere, but instead curve back into themselves in one continuous tangle. The author's name, Jay Timothy Dolmage, appears in the top left corner; at the bottom of the page is Thanks to all of the folks who have shared their energy and dedication through the Committee on Disability Issues in College Composition over the years, from my mentor Cindy Lewiecki-Wilson to my first, finest, and continued coconspirators Stephanie Kerschbaum, Margaret Price, and Amy Vidali, through to all of those who will continue this work into the future.
