Accessibility

The university is committed to creating a campus community that is inclusive of all individuals and ensures equal opportunity for its members to achieve success. For students with disabilities, the university provides reasonable academic accommodations in accordance with the Procedures for Academic Accommodation for Students with Disabilities. Reasonable academic accommodations may require members of the university community to exercise creativity and flexibility in responding to a student’s needs while maintaining academic standards. Instructors who require clarification on how to accommodate a student’s academic needs can find links to government regulations, accessible course material design, and best practices for instruction and evaluation here.

The following are some of the many resources available to you for improving the accessible design of course materials and best practices in accessible course delivery:
