I am sure there has to be studies or data to back it up, but segregation of students with disabilities was a huge disservice to many individuals. People who may have become high-functioning and employable in society, were placed in environments that didn't help them realize their potential. There were a lot of parents at the time that didn't want de-segregation. It was a little controversial at the time.
