The University of Arkansas is on record as being committed to both the spirit and letter of federal equal opportunity legislation; reference Public Law 92-112-The Rehabilitation Act of 1973 as amended. With the passage of federal legislation titled Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), pursuant to section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, there is renewed focus on providing this population with the same opportunities enjoyed by all citizens.
Faculty members in the EMSON are required by law to provide "reasonable accommodations" to students with disabilities, so as not to discriminate on the basis of that disability. Student responsibility primarily rests with providing authorized documentation through the Center for Educational Access (CEA), 104 Arkansas Union, and informing faculty of their need for accommodation.
To register for services or for more information, contact the Center for Educational Access, University of Arkansas, 104 ARKU, Fayetteville, AR 72701, phone 479-575-3646, e-mail: ada@uark.edu; Web: http://www.uark.edu/ua/csd/.
A student or prospective student is not obligated to disclose a disability unless he or she requests an accommodation.
