教职员指引

Xavier University of Louisiana is committed to providing equal opportunity to higher education for academically qualified students without regard to a disability. 学生 and 教师 at Xavier University are encouraged to become familiar with their rights and responsibilities.

The 教师 of Xavier is committed to the retention of students while promoting academic success. 学生 are recruited to the university with the understanding that the 教师 is responsive to their needs and will provide reasonable accommodations. Providing reasonable accommodations is a cooperative effort between Xavier’s 教师 and The Office of 残疾人服务 (ODS).

These guidelines are designed to help Xavier’s 教师 understand how accommodations work and what parts of the accommodation process they are responsible for. The information in this guide is separated into sections based on accommodation type.

一般信息

不歧视政策

Federal and state laws prohibit discrimination on the basis of disability. It is the intent of the University’s Disability Advisory Committee that 教师 of Xavier go beyond legal requirements in fostering an atmosphere of enhanced learning. The Vice President of 学生事务 established the University Disability Advisory Committee as an advisory committee to recommend policy and procedures on disability issues.

学生的责任

从他们与e世博esball的初次接触中, students with disabilities who need accommodations should contact the ODS office. It is the student's responsibility to acquire information concerning technological accommodations, 校园停车资源, 住房服务和学生健康服务. 学生 are responsible for providing documentation, making timely requests for services and communicating with their professors regarding accommodations specific to the course.

残疾证明文件

Assistance is available to students whose disabilities have been documented by the appropriate professional and in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Disability verification is solely the responsibility of the ODS office. The student is responsible for providing appropriate documentation. 教师 should not be involved in the process of documenting a disability. 作为一名教员, you can assist students by directing them to ODS's resources, thereby easing the student's adjustment and assuring a more positive early university experience. 如果你 do receive a letter from ODS, the student's disability has been documented.
