UC Santa Cruz is committed to creating an academic environment that supports its diverse student body. If you are a student with a disability who requires accommodations to achieve equal access in this course, please submit your Accommodation Authorization Letter from the Disability Resource Center (DRC) to me privately during my office hours or by appointment, preferably within the first two weeks of the quarter. At this time, I would also like us to discuss ways we can ensure your full participation in the course. I encourage all students who may benefit from learning more about DRC services to contact DRC by phone at 831-459-2089, or by email at drc@ucsc.edu.
Student responsibilities are as follows:
1. Students contact the DRC to determine their eligibility for accommodations. Students will request and receive their accommodation letter. This letter is provided to the instructor. This is official notice of a request for accommodation.
2. Students then notify their instructor during office hours or after class of their accommodations, and provide their instructor with their Accommodation Letters.
3. Students will manage their own disclosure of disability status. Please maintain this confidential information according to UC Santa Cruz data practices.
