摘要：
Postsecondary education for students with intellectual disabilities and autism is a new frontier in higher education. As more programs are developed, information is needed regarding the attitudes of college faculty and students about having these students on campus. This study surveyed university faculty (n = 152) and students (n = 499) about their beliefs related to postsecondary education for students with intellectual disabilities and autism. Results highlight a willingness to embrace these programs but concerns about the effects in the classroom. Faculty participants indicated more uncertainty about inclusion of these students than did students. Implications for practice, education, and future research are provided.
