通道及住宿服务

根据美国残疾人法案, a disability is a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life 活动. Major life 活动 related to education include but are not limited to walking, 睡觉, 吃, 学习, 阅读, 写作, 处理, 听力, 等.

1973年的《lol菠菜竞猜》第504条要求接受联邦资金的人为残疾人提供平等的机会获得所有服务. In 1990, 《lol电竞菠菜》(ADA)更详细地规定了不仅是联邦基金接受者的义务，也包括私营企业和公共场所的义务.

In 2008, after a series of court decisions eroded congress’s intent with the ADA, 国会通过了修正案. 《lol电竞菠菜》重申了国会的意图，即《lol电竞菠菜》适用于所有类型的残疾人，包括那些患有癌症或身体系统损伤等长期疾病的人，并明确指出，在确定个人是否患有残疾时，不应采取减轻措施. 修正案的意图和效果是显著扩大《lol电竞菠菜》所涵盖的人数.

住宿是对政策和/或学术环境的调整，以确保有暂时或永久性残疾的学生能够适应 平等机会 to course material, information, 活动, programs, housing, and other campus facilities.

不允许向学生询问有关其残疾的更多细节，因为必须维护学生信息的机密性. 是否向他们的老师或学院的工作人员披露他们残疾的性质是个人的选择.

服务性动物是一种被训练来为残疾人工作或执行积极任务的动物. If it is unclear whether an animal (a dog and rarely a miniature horse) is a service animal, 任何人都可以问以下问题:(1)服务性动物是否因为残疾而被需要;(2)该动物受过什么工作或任务的训练? If you are unsure whether these questions have been answered satisfactorily, 允许人和动物继续, 并联系接入 & 校园住宿服务. An emotional support animal is not a service animal.

访问 & 杰纳西社区学院的住宿服务鼓励有服务动物的学生到我们的办公室登记他们的动物. 如果学生和服务动物因任何原因分开，我们需要促进团聚，这将很有帮助. 请浏览我们的 服务动物登记表格.

在高等教育阶段(学院和大学)，有关残疾学生强制性住宿的法律与K-12不同. Therefore, a student may not receive accommodations that they received in high school. 在某些情况下, the accommodations that students receive in high school may be the same, but other accommodations may not be reasonable and appropriate at the college level. 这就是为什么每个学生的文件被审查，住宿是通过互动过程进行讨论.

For information related to the differences between k-12 services and services in higher education, 请参阅我们的文件 过渡到大学住宿.

Unlike high school, the university setting requires students to act as independent adults. 如果学生提交给访问 & 住宿服务 when they face challenges on campus, 我们将尽一切努力帮助学生在我们的服务范围内回到正轨. 然而，每日监测是不可用的.

A student who is 18 years old or older is legally recognized as an adult. As an adult, the student must self-identify to 访问 & 住宿服务和请求住宿. Accommodation requests will only be accepted from the student, not from his or her parents. Many times, parents ask to be included in the first appointment with 访问 & 住宿服务. With the student’s approval, this can be very helpful. 学生s must sign a release if they wish to have information shared with parents after the first meeting.

学生必须自我识别访问 & 住宿服务和请求住宿 (this is separate from the general 招生 process). 第一步包括完成我们的 进气形式 要求和我们的一名员工见面. 在lol电竞菠菜上课的学生将被要求与访问见面 & 住宿办公室 Professional for an intake meeting to discuss the accommodation process. 只在网上上课的学生将需要通过电话或电子方式与访问进行交流 & 住宿服务专业人员.

需要或想要我们的入学表格的不同格式的学生可以通过电子邮件(access@杰纳西.edu)或致电585.343.0055 x6219. We will be happy to provide our form in an alternative format.

每个学院/大学可能有不同的文件指南和规则，lol菠菜竞猜什么是合理的住宿. 转学到杰纳西社区学院后, information from a previous school is helpful but it is still necessary for 访问 & 住宿办公室专业人员将审核您的文件，并确定我们机构的合理费用.

No, 如果学生在接受高等教育期间使用了访问服务，那么他们的学习记录上就没有标志或识别标记. 进一步, documentation and disability services records are maintained separately from other academic records.

Documentation guidelines vary based on the type of disability. We will determine through the interactive process what, if any, documentation is needed. Please note that you should not delay meeting with us out of concern for not having the right paperwork. 在最初的互动流程会议期间，每个顾问将讨论具体的第三方文档需求，以及会后您可以采取的步骤. Our first priority is meeting with you, not reviewing your documentation.
