Disability Services provides academic accommodations for students with a documented, permanent or temporary physical, mental or sensory disability; resource and referral information. Support services are available for enrolled students and those planning to enroll. Students seeking accommodation need to register with Disability Services. To do this, students must complete an intake packet available at Disability Services. Intake packets can also be sent if students are unable to pick them up on campus. After completing an intake packet, students make an appointment to complete the intake interview and discuss accommodations. Though an Intake Appointment can be set up at any time, it is preferable that it be done six weeks in advance of the need for accommodation since some accommodations take time to coordinate. Students will also need to provide written documentation of their disability. Documentation Guidelines, which clarify the type of documentation required, are available. Contact Disability Services to request the appropriate guideline. Requested accommodations must be supported by the documented effects of the disability. Accommodations include, but are not limited to, testing modifications, alternative format textbooks, note taking, adaptive equipment and software, tape recorders, talking calculators, spell checkers, wireless microphones and receiver systems, and sign language interpreting. Students with disabilities who need accommodations or other assistance are encouraged to contact Disability Services as soon as possible after applying for admission to the college. It is the student’s responsibility to request accommodations in a timely manner as accommodations are not offered retroactively. MAIN CONTACTS Manager: Rebecca C.

However, access to garage disabled parking for students, guests and employees is permitted during day and evening hours with BOTH a disabled permit AND a valid campus permit. PERMIT VIOLATIONS, state motor vehicle laws and city traffic codes are strictly enforced. The 3rd unpaid infraction results in vehicle immobilization and an additional $50 fee for boot removal. Ticket fees are $10 per infraction in most cases, and higher for parking in disabled spaces without a disabled placard/hangtag. CARPOOLERS receive a reduced quarterly parking rate and must park in designated carpool areas. Register for Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) Program to receive the carpool rate and additional incentives. A new CTR application must be filled out during the first 2 weeks of each quarter. For details and to apply, see the Transportation Coordinator, Toni Bajado.

Non-institutional individuals, including applicants for employment, vendors, consultants, and contractors, also have the right to be free from sexual harassment while at this institution and must not harass members of this institution’s community. This institution defines sexual harassment as unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature, when: 1. Submission to such conduct is either a stated or implied term or condition of employment, or status in a course, or institutional program or activity; 2. An individual’s submission to or rejection of such conduct is used as a basis for an academic or employment decision affecting the individual; 3. Such conduct unreasonably interferes with an individual’s academic or work performance or creates an intimidating, hostile, or offensive working or learning environment. Employees and students are encouraged to come forward with their concerns or complaints about sexual harassment. Immediate and appropriate action, as described in the complaint procedures, will be taken to resolve complaints. Retaliation against any individual for making a complaint about or cooperating in a sexual harassment investigation is not permitted.
