Student Disability Resources Office
Refer students who ask about student disability accommodations to the Office of Student Disability Resources Office (SDR). SDR staff members work with students and instructors to provide course accommodations for students who need them. Accommodations look different for every student. Share the information on the Student Disability Resources page, and tell students to make an appointment with a counselor from SDR.
For specific questions or concerns about your course and accessibility accommodations, email ISTLearningDesign@psu.edu.
