READERS
AND SCRIBES
In certain cases a student may need the use of a reader or scribe. DSS
will act as a referral source to identify potential readers, or the
student may identify their own readers. Students are requested to fill
out an academic accommodation request form at the beginning of the
semester. DSS will then provide the student with a list of names in
order to determine a reading schedule. Students are responsible for
arranging reading/scribing times at their own convenience.
If a
student fails to keep an appointment with a reader/scribe three times
without calling DSS to cancel, the accommodation may no longer be
provided. Students can re-apply for this accommodation, but
abuse of this service may result in this accommodation not being
available for future use.
