Commitment to Accessibility

The University is committed to ensuring equal access to all programs for people with disabilities, prohibits disability discrimination, and assures equal opportunity to access the institution, which includes participation in educational activities and access to academic programs. The University complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA"), as amended in 2008, and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act ("Section 504") when considering student requests for appropriate accommodations.

Mission Statement

The Accommodations Resource Center works with all aspects of the University and the community to provide opportunities for students with disabilities and enable them to fully participate in and enjoy the benefits of higher education. We recognize that disability reflects diverse characteristics and experiences and is an aspect of diversity integral to society. The Accommodations Center achieves this by honoring the uniqueness of each student and through the provision of resources and services that promote academic success and self-advocacy skills. In addition, we collaborate with students, instructors, staff, and community members to create usable, equitable, inclusive and sustainable learning environments.
