GRIFFIN HALL 69 – Ext. 1465
Any student who has a disability should contact the Disability Services Coordinator at extension 1465. The coordinator will evaluate documentation, provide appropriate accommodations, and act as a resource/advocate to assist students in meeting their academic goals and to ensure equality of opportunity.
Students are responsible for furnishing current documentation of their disability to the coordinator. These diagnostic reports should be within 3 years of the request for service and should be completed by a physician or other licensed practitioner. The exception to this would be psychological disabilities which require current documentation.
It is the responsibility of the student to seek available assistance and to request reasonable accommodations through the coordinator. The coordinator, together with the student, determines accommodations, with recommendations from qualified professionals and in consultation with faculty members.
Students who lack documentation but suspect they may qualify for accommodations are encouraged to contact the Disability Services Coordinator.
