Dr. Catherine Kramarczuk Voulgarides is Assistant Professor of Special Education at the City University of New York (CUNY)—Hunter College. Her scholarship is interdisciplinary, spanning the fields of disability studies, special education, sociology, educational leadership, and policy and law. She is focused on understanding how schools are both sites of educational opportunity and marginalization for non-dominant students, specifically examining how notions of equity, access, and opportunity are constructed in policy and law; how educational policies and laws impact long standing educational inequities; and how the social, historical, and cultural contexts of schools and the teaching and learning process relate to educational equity.
