Students with disabilities, who wish to request accommodations in the classroom, should register with the counselor for disability services early in the semester. This allows time for appropriate arrangements to be made, if appropriate. In accordance with federal laws, students requesting accommodations must provide documentation of their disability to the counselor for disability services, Jacqui Slinger, 3rd floor College Hall (in the Learning Resource Center). She may also be reached at 419-358-3215 or by email at slingerj@bluffton.edu.
Bluffton University does not discriminate against qualified students with disabilities. The mission of Disability Services at Bluffton University is to ensure that qualified students with disabilities are provided access to all programs in order to maximize their educational potential, develop independence to the fullest extent possible and perform at a level limited only by their abilities, not their disabilities. Any student with a disability who seeks modifications in accordance with the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, such as academic adjustments or auxiliary aids or services, must submit a request to the University’s Section 504 Coordinator. The Section 504 Coordinator will work with the student and other persons as necessary to determine the appropriate modifications.
