    Why are there so many students approved for accommodations in my classes and what do I do about the accommodations?

    1:30-3:30 pm – Laurel Hall 306 

    An ever-increasing number of UConn students with disabilities are requesting academic and residential accommodations. During this session, we will present data on the number of students approved for accommodations, disability categories, as well as accommodations coordinated. We will also highlight the legal process the Center for Students with Disabilities (CSD) engages in to respond to requests for accommodations and how students, faculty and staff are involved. Additionally, we will discuss the coordination of approved accommodations through collaborations between the CSD, faculty, staff and students.
