How does EAS collaborate with faculty?
Provide Resources
Confidential
If a student reports a disability or impairment when requesting help, please refer the student to EAS for consideration and determination of support.
The student’s registration with Educational Access Services, any student-shared disability details, and the fact that they receive accommodations should be kept confidential.
- A resource to applicable students that are struggling
- Protection for specifics of disability
- Protection for integrity of course
Fundamental Alterations
Proctored Exams
Students may request a proctored test in the EAS office to receive accommodations that cannot otherwise be received in the classroom.
An accommodation that fundamentally alters the nature of a course or the program curriculum may be considered unreasonable. Contact EAS to discuss these concerns.
Service Animals: is a dog or miniature horse individually trained to do work or perform specific tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability.
Questions you can ask:
- Is the dog a service animal required because of a disability?
- What work or task has the dog been trained to perform?
