Welcome to Disability Resources for Students (DRS)
The Disability Resources for Students (DRS) is a department within the 糖心原创 created to ensure the University fulfills its legal requirements related to accessibility by establishing and facilitating reasonable academic accommodations.
Note
This website focuses on your role in supporting students with disabilities. For information regarding employee accommodations, please visit the website.
Two ways to get started
Instructors may have different starting points when it comes to understanding and implementing disability accommodations. To help you navigate our resources effectively, we’ve outlined two primary pathways:
Detailed Topic Guides
Who is this path for?
Instructors and instructional personnel who want a thorough understanding of accessibility and the accommodation processes.
Topic Guides:
- Instructor Responsibilities and Guidelines
- Creating Accessible Courses
- Implementing Accommodations
- Addressing Accommodation Concerns
- Resources and Support
Though each of these Topic Guides can standalone, reading them in order will provide the most linear pathway to understanding accommodation processes and the underlying frameworks that informs them.
Quick Reference
Who is this path for?
Instructors and instructional personnel who have received a Faculty Notification Letter (FNL) and need immediate guidance.
What you’ll learn:
- Why the FNL Matters
- How to Interpret your FNL
- Immediate next steps

Note
We recommend that all instructors eventually familiarize themselves with all the Topic Guides to gain a comprehensive understanding of disability accommodations and inclusive teaching practices.
