Abstract: This case deals with issues related to the access of higher education facilities to individuals with physical disability (visual disability in this case). The names and the characters are fictitious though the overall inspiration of the case is based on real-life events. This case has been developed as an instructional case to illustrate the model of factors affecting the treatment of individuals with disability in the organization. These factors can be broadly divided into two categories, namely, the personal factors and the environmental factors ( Stone and Colella, 1996 ). This case also touches upon issues like due diligent efforts that need to be made to accommodate the individuals with disability, the acceptance of the individuals with disability into organization and into main stream society, and stereotyping of individuals with disability. This case can also be extended to sensitize individuals and managers to other forms of disability and to educate them about the legal provisions made both nationally and internationally. This case has been developed for academic discussion only.
