Accommodations do not give some students an unfair advantage over other students. Students who have a learning, physical, or psychological disability have academic 其他学生没有的限制. Accommodations simply level the playing field so each student has equal and full access to lectures, books and to sharing what they 已经学会了. We accommodate for "equal access" so the student's level of academic success can be assessed just as it is with any other student.

Be aware that students are given the choice to pick up and deliver paper copies or have accommodation letters sent to instructors electronically. 当所有的学生 are encouraged to secure letters at the beginning of the semester, students occasionally forget to request letters or get approved for accommodation mid-semester. 在所有情况下, accommodations should never be applied retroactively.
