[It is important to provide a clearly welcoming environment so that students understand they can come forward with accommodation requests.
- Encourage students with disabilities to approach you early in the semester by placing a statement on your syllabus such as the one below
- Be available for accommodation conversations with students during office hours or scheduled appointments
For more information, see the Faculty Responsibilities page on the Disabilty Services website.]
Suggested syllabus language:
UNC Charlotte is committed to accessibility in education. If you have a disability and need academic accommodations, send me your Accommodation Letter through the DS Portal as early as possible. I encourage you to meet with me to discuss the accommodations outlined in your letter. For more information about accommodations, contact the Office of Disability Services at 704-687-0040 or disability@charlotte.edu.
