ADHD is not a deficit of attention. Much of what we've all been taught about ADHD is wrong.
Karen Costa is a career leader in higher education and proud ADHD-er. In her latest book, Costa proposes a new framework for ADHD based on the latest research and the lived experiences of people with ADHD. Challenging conventional narratives that treat ADHD as a deficiency, Costa instead invites educators to embrace the full humanity, creativity, and complexity of ADHD learners.

Disclaimer for staff only: For those whose primary role at UNO is as a full-time staff member, the Center for Faculty Excellence (CFE) will process the required forms to request advance approval for the staff member to receive payment for participation incentivized programming. Please note that approval must be requested in advance of participation. Additionally, staff members should discuss and request permission to participate in incentivized activities with their direct supervisor, as the pre-approval process requires the signatures of their supervisor and others. CFE will prepare and route the request form for the staff member to receive additional compensation. Requests are carefully reviewed by several offices and by a senior campus leadership committee. While CFE does not anticipate denials, there is no guarantee of payment to staff. Should an individual's pre-approval be denied, we will notify that person as soon as possible.
