住宿的描述
Accommodations are modifications to conditions that would otherwise cause a student, because of a disability, to be at a disadvantage relative to non-disabled students in their access to the College's programs for students. Reasonable accommodations provide equitable access to programs or facilities and do not fundamentally alter the essential nature of a course or academic program. This page contains an alphabetized list of many of the accommodations that 皇冠博彩 provides, along with brief descriptions. 这不是一个详尽的清单； accommodations are determined based on the barriers encountered by each student, and the College provides other individualized accommodations that do not appear on this list.
有声阅读软件
The read-aloud accommodation (RA) is frequently provided to students with high-incidence disabilities to facilitate their access to learning opportunities during instruction and to allow them to demonstrate knowledge and skills during testing.

其他格式的书籍
学生可能需要其他格式的课程材料。 Common alternate formats include enlarged texts, recorded texts, electronic texts or brailled course materials. 无障碍和住宿办公室 works with students and professors to provide an appropriate format for the student.

Students who do not use sign language and cannot access information presented orally may need Communication Access Realtime Translation (CART) services.

The court reporter may be in the classroom or at a remote location.

频繁的休息
For some students with disabilities, sitting for long periods of time and/or remaining in the same position for the duration of a class period can exacerbate symptoms of the disability.

Students should discuss seating arrangements and the timing of breaks with their instructors.
