What do I do if a student approaches me in class requesting accommodations and I have not received an Accommodation Letter from the Office for Disability Services or Disability Contact Liaison?

Simply, ask the student if he/she is working with the Office for Disability Services or a Disability Contact Liaison. If he or she is, suggest the student contact the staff person they have been working with to inform them they must have an Accommodation Letter outlining the accommodations needed. It is the student’s responsibility to provide documentation of his or her disability in order to receive accommodations. If a student is asking for accommodations and is not working with ODS/DCL, suggest they call the office to arrange for an appointment. Accommodations should not be given if you have not received an official accommodation letter from ODS/DCL.
