Syllabus Statement
DAS provides the following official syllabus statement, approved by the OSU faculty senate, that all faculty members should include in their course syllabi.
Accommodations for students with disabilities are determined and approved by Disability Access Services (DAS). If you, as a student, believe you are eligible for accommodations but have not obtained approval please contact DAS immediately at 541-737-4098 or at http://ds.oregonstate.edu. DAS notifies students and faculty members of approved academic accommodations and coordinates implementation of those accommodations. While not required, students and faculty members are encouraged to discuss details of the implementation of individual accommodations.
Classroom & Online Accommodations
Academic accommodations enable students with disabilities to have equal access to education, but accessibility isn't just about providing accommodations.
