DISABLED STUDENTS PROGRAM (DSP)
Providing academic accommodations to students with disabilities is a
shared responsibility of the campus. Students with disabilities are
responsible for ensuring that the Disabled Students Program (DSP) is
aware of their disabilities and for providing DSP with appropriate
documentation. DSP is located at 2120 Student Resource Building and serves
as the campus liaison regarding academic issues and regulations related to
students with disabilities. The DSP staff works in an advisory capacity with a
variety of campus departments to ensure that equal access is provided to all
disabled students.
