In honor of Autism Acceptance Month, we’re joined by Emmanuel Mejeun, Director of Austin Peay’s Full Spectrum Learning (FSL) Program. Originally from Haiti, Emmanuel’s journey from student to leader has helped shape FSL into a standout support system for students with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
In this episode, Emmanuel shares how his personal story fuels his professional mission, how FSL empowers neurodivergent students through events like the Reverse Career Fair, and what it means to create a space where students can truly be themselves.
We also chat about his doctoral studies, his passion for music, and the growth of the program under his leadership. Tune in to hear how Emmanuel and FSL are changing the game for inclusion in higher education.
