Communication With
Faculty
Communication with
Faculty
During the first
two weeks of school, after being approved for accommodations by the
Office of Student Disability Services, students should make appointments
to discuss their accommodations with their instructors. They should
avoid waiting until there is a crisis. Upon approaching faculty
members, student should consider these recommendations:
• Make an
appointment during instructor’s office hours. Explain to the instructor
your affiliation with the Office of Student Disability Services
|
• Make it
clear that you are a serious and motivated student. When appropriate,
discuss what has worked in the past
|
• Understand
and be able to articulate needs in relation to the specific
accommodations
|
• Initiate
discussions on any other disability-related concerns that may not be
accommodations per se, but need to be brought to the attention of an
instructor early in the semester, such as elevator break downs,
responding to emergencies or attendance issues.
|
• Discuss
other concerns/considerations besides the accommodations.
|
Be assertive-not
aggressive and remain calm and courteous. If there is a disagreement,
or the instructor has indicated an unwillingness to provide authorized
accommodations, immediately make an appointment with the Office of
Student Disability Services staff to obtain assistance.
