<<<As syllabi are drawn up for Spring 2002 courses, all instructors are
<<<reminded to include a statement regarding disability based accommodations.
<<<A syllabus statement ensures students have been informed as to the steps
<<<necessary to receive disability accommodations and that the university has
<<<fulfilled an obligation to inform.
<<<
<<<While a syllabus ADA announcement can be customized, suggested statement
<<<are:
<<<
<<< Any student with a documented disability needing academic
<<< adjustments or accommodations is requested to speak with me
<<< during the first two weeks of class. All discussions will
<<< remain confidential. Students with disabilities will need to also
<<< contact Disability Support Services in the Ley Student Center.
<<<
<<< Any student with a disability requiring accommodations in this
<<< course is encouraged to contact me after class or during
<<< office hours. Additionally, students will need to contact
<<< Disability
<<< Support Services in the Ley Student Center.
<<<
<<< If you have a documented disability that will impact your
<<< work in this class, please contact me to discuss your needs.
<<< Additionally, you will need to register with the Disability
<<< Support Services Office in the Ley Student Center.
<<<
<<<**These statements are also available at
<<<http://dacnet.rice.edu/~dss/ADA_Syllabus_Statements.pdf. Additional
<<<information about disability services is available for faculty at the web
<<<site www.rice.edu/dss.
<<<
<<<Students with disabilities are expected to notify me of their courses at the
<<<outset of the every semester so that Accommodation Letters can be drawn up
<<<for each professor. The student is then responsible for delivering a letter
<<<to each professor as soon as possible.
<<<
<<<INSTRUCTORS ARE CAUTIONED AGAINST PROVIDING DISABILITY BASED ACCOMMODATIONS
<<<PRIOR TO RECEIPT OF AN ACCOMMODATION LETTER FROM THE DISABILITY SUPPORT
<<<SERVICES OFFICE.
