Evaluations and Grading

Accommodations are designed to provide students with disabilities equal access to course materials and information. The goal of accommodations is to allow students an equal opportunity to demonstrate their understanding, or lack of understanding, of course materials and information. While approved accommodations must be provided, students with disabilities should be held to the same academic and program standards as all other students. As long as the university, which in this case means faculty, accommodates this process for learning and demonstrating knowledge, the university is not required to accommodate the final product (the grade).
