The passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and recent case law brings the issue of disability access to the forefront at institutions of higher education. Higher education administrators and disability service providers are faced with difficult decisions regarding how to provide the most efficient and cost effective access throughout the institution. The purpose of this session is two-fold. First, the presenters will provide an overview of the legal mandates of the ADA, pertinent case law and Office for Civil Rights Decisions. Second, the presenters will outline appropriate accommodations and explore the meaning of qualified interpreters.
