Students with Disabilities: If you qualify
for academic accommodations because of a disability or
medical issue, please submit a faculty letter to me from
Disability Services Program (DSP) in a timely manner so
that your needs may be addressed. DSP determines
accommodations based on documented disabilities/medical
issues. DSP is located on the 4th floor of Ruffatto
Hall, 1999 E Evans Ave, 303-871-2278. Information is
also available online at http://www.du.edu/disability/dsp;
see the Handbook
for Students with Disabilities.
Religious Accommodations: University
policy grants students excused absences from class or
other organized activities for observance of religious
holy days, unless the accommodation would create an
undue hardship. Faculty are asked to be responsive to
requests when students contact them in advance to request
such an excused absence. Students are responsible for
completing assignments given during their absence, but
should be given an opportunity to make up work missed
because of religious observance. Once a student has
registered for a class, the student is expected to
examine the course syllabus for potential conflicts with
holy days and to notify the instructor by the end of the
first week of classes of any conflicts that may require
an absence (including any required additional
preparation/travel time). The student is also expected
to remind the faculty member in advance of the missed
class, and to make arrangements in advance (with the
faculty member) to make up any missed work or in-class
material within a reasonable amount of time.
As we engage in online learning as an academic community, it is imperative to be respectful of all. Keep in mind that if any student is identifiable in an online class recording, this may constitute a violation of the educational record protections provided under FERPA.
Students with disabilities who need to record classroom lectures or discussions must contact the Disability Services Program to register, request, and be approved for an accommodation. All students are advised that students may tape classroom activities for this purpose. Such recordings are to be used solely for individual or group study with other students enrolled in the class that quarter/semester. They may not be reproduced, shared in any way (including electronically or posting in any web environment) with those not in the class in that quarter.
Students who violate this policy will be reported to The Office of Student Rights & Responsibilities and may be subject to both legal sanctions for violations of copyright law and disciplinary action under Student Rights & Responsibilities Policies.
