Welcome to the Office of Disability Services!
We strive to create an accessible community at Meredith, where people are judged on their abilities, not their disabilities.
Disability Services Handbook
2008 - 2009
Download the Disability Services Handbook 2008-09 for information about our policies and procedures, services and resources. The handbook is also available in the Disability Services Office in 201A Carroll Hall. Alternate formats are available upon request.
Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) prohibit discrimination against individuals with disabilities.
In a college setting, it’s the student’s responsibility to request accommodations, if desired. Not every student with a disability needs an accommodation; and even though two individuals may have the same disability, they may not need the same accommodation. Every student is unique, each with her own distinct gifts, talents, strengths and challenges.
We connect students with resources to help them better accomplish their educational goals. Some of the tools we offer, like our reading technology software, are useful for students with and without disabilities. We’re here to help all of our students reach their greatest potential.
