Motlow State Community College is committed to meeting the needs of qualified students with disabilities by providing equal access to educational opportunities, programs, and activities in the most integrated setting appropriate. This commitment is consistent with the College's obligations under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (Section 504) and the American with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA). Together, these laws prohibit discrimination against qualified persons with disabilities.
Ann Greer, Director of Disability Services and Minority Affairs, coordinates services for students with disabilities at MSCC and serves as an advocate and liaison for disabled students attending the college.
The office is located in Simon Hall - S129. Regular office hours are from 7:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Students not enrolled on the Moore County Campus should request services through the Fayetteville, Smyrna, McMinnville centers or by calling 931-393-1765.
All students seeking assistance through Disabled Student Services must disclose the presence and nature of a specific disability to the Director of Disability Services and Minority Affairs. Before receiving requested accommodations, students may be required to obtain additional documentation of disability. Documentation may include records or written statements from a professional who is licensed to practice in the field appropriate for diagnosing and/or treating the disability in question-a physician, optometrist, audiologist, physical, or occupational therapist, psychologist, etc.
A comprehensive individual assessment is conducted with each student to determine his/her need for specific accommodations. The Director of Disability Services and Minority Affairs plans with each student the academic support and accommodations he/she will need. The planning is based on professional evaluations and recommendations; an assessment of the disability will determine how these circumstances affect academic success. Individual information regarding the student is confidential; however, where appropriate, the Director of Disability Services and Minority Affairs may consult with faculty members or other involved regarding accommodation.
After the appropriate accommodation is determined, the Director of Disability Services and Minority Affairs will complete an accommodation form describing the requested accommodation.
If you have any questions regarding the procedures for disabled student services, please contact Ms. Ann Greer at 931-393-1765 or e-mail AGreer@mscc.edu. |
