Furniture and Equipment

If approved as an accommodation, SDS works with Facilities Management and the Office of Equal Opportunity & Regulatory Compliance if a student needs accessible furniture (desk/chairs) in the classroom. Students may request classroom desks/tables that are raised to allow for wheelchair access or lowered for smaller statures. It is also possible to provide accessible chairs to meet different needs.

SDS will also work with the Department of Student Housing if there are specific, disability-related, furniture needs in the residence halls.

In addition, SDS can loan, on a semester basis, adaptive technology to approved students. Technology may include portable CCTVs, LiveScribe Pens, and amplification devices.
