Update microaggressions lesson to use following language "student with a disability" #6

I found a pretty cool resource on diability ettiquette and they suggest referring to students with disabilities just like so, and not to say "disabled student" or "disabled person". The microaggressions lesson has at least one example of a microaggression that uses the phrase "disabled student" that should be changed.

Yes, it should definitely be person with disability, not disabled... not sure how that got in the lesson! I'll change that now.

Fixed!
