Students who have special needs that require accommodation are responsible for notifying instructors in each course in which they are enrolled and appropriate staff members, who in turn will refer the student to the ADA Compliance Coordinator. Following verification of the student’s status, the ADA Compliance Coordinator will work with the instructor or staff member in implementing an appropriate plan for accommodation of the student’s needs. Support documentation of special needs from a physician or other qualified professional will be required if deemed necessary. For more information, students should contact the Student Success Center, Foust Hall 7, (205) 652-3651 or the Office of Student Life, 311 Webb Hall, (205)652-3581.
