Students with autism‐spectrum disorder are often viewed as being somehow odd by those who don't know about their condition or don't understand it. Meanwhile, students on the spectrum frequently lack an understanding of nonverbal communication and what constitutes acceptable behavior. That can lead to misunderstandings between students with ASD and college faculty, staff and their peers.
