Student Disability Services
|
It is the mission of Student Disability Services (SDS) to create and maintain an environment on the New College campus that recognizes and supports students with disabilities by assuring them equal access to all educational opportunities. There is a legal imperative for this mission, embodied in Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and reinforced in the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990.
SDS offers a range of services to students including reasonable accommodations, referrals to campus and community services, advocacy and auxiliary aids. These services are designed to support the students’ participation in all programs and activities offered at New College. Services are individually designed and based on the specific needs of each student as identified and documented by SDS. In order to be eligible for disability related services, students are required to register and provide documentation of their disability through the SDS. If special accommodations are necessary, the student will be assisted in the development and implementation of the plan by the SDS staff. The process is intended to coordinate efforts with faculty members and college staff while maintaining privacy for the student.
